The world is dark and disturbing in this tale set in the warring past of Japan. Two young men, who grew up together become enemies when one of them becomes something else.
Yoma is the Japanese term for demon. A world full of undead and demons is a scary one. There are vats of blood thrown about as the hero of the piece chases after his once friend now something more.
This movie is NOT for the average watcher. It is scary and gory and more than those who are tender of spirit should not watch. I would give this a R rating in the US movie scale.
But for the adventuresome older viewers this movie has parts that are amazing. My favorite part is the counting ghost. The song she sings is so beautiful and once it is translated into English….rather disturbing.
I do recommend this one. Just not for everyone.
