AKA The Black Cat from the Grove. Yabu no naka no kuroneko.
"Are you passing through the dark grove beyond here?"
A mother and her daughter in law are raped and murdered by some bandits and return as vampiric cats to reap their revenge on unwary samurai. The governor calls in a young samurai to sort things out and he comes across the two who he then meets in a thrilling fight.
The title means "Black Cat" in English, and based on a Japanese folktale The Cats Return. What starts as a vicious tale develops into a surrealistic and atmospheric horror.
