Synopsis

Following a car accident during which they run someone over and then flee the scene, two students will end up experiencing the afterlife firsthand. Nakagawa devoted three years to conceiving this film, searching for a unique representation of hell. Through the use of abundant special effects, he managed to come up with a completely original concept. Sixties J-Horror that combines the supernatural with gore, and drama with surrealism. 4K restored copy.
