Ghost In The Well
Directed by: KONO Toshikazu
Cast: MISORA Hibari, AZUMA Chiyonosuke, HOSHI Michiko
The ever popular Misora Hibari stars as Okiku, who returns from the grave to
seek vengeance against the lover that murdered her.
In this unique take on the
traditional Japanese ghost story, a woman's love is misused, and unfortunately
she pays with her life, only to come back seeking vengeance.
Unlike the usual
story, there is an element of mystery here, as Okiku's ghost seeks to find the truth
before acting against her beloved. Can Okiku's ghost find out the truth behind her
tragic death?
A brilliant little black and white film with an all-star cast featuring
some of Japan's most popular actors along with singer/actress Misora Hibari,
who is still considered the Japanese people's all-time favorite actress according
to a recent newspaper poll.
