Blind Woman's Curse

About This Movie

So, 'Blind Woman's Curse' is a wild ride, really. Directed by Teruo Ishii, it blends action, crime, and drama in a pretty unique way. The lead, Akemi, is fascinating—she’s got this dragon tattoo and a fierce presence as the head of the Tachibana Yakuza clan. The story unfolds with this insane duel where she blinds an opponent, and then there’s this surreal twist with a black cat drinking the blood. The practical effects are a standout, quite visceral, and they really heighten the eerie atmosphere. The pacing has this rhythmic ebb and flow, which keeps you engaged. Plus, the themes of vengeance and the supernatural give it a distinct vibe that feels both gritty and surreal.
