Directed by:Akira InoueA color remake of “Inn of Evil” one of Japan’s greatest classic films starring Tatsuya Nakadai, this time as the proprietor of a smuggling business in Edo during the samurai era. Illegal trade was being carried out under the blind eye of a corrupt police official. Meanwhile the “Serenity Inn” which doesn’t welcome strangers hosts three outsiders in one day but only two emerge. Tatsuya Nakadai’s wife, Tomoe Ryu was the screenwriter for both versions and the music by Masaru Sato sets the suspenseful tone, much as did Toru Takemitsu’s composing for the original film. Daisuke Ryu gives a smoldering performance as expert knife fighter Sada the Indifferent, and Kei Yamamoto reprises his role as the hapless young man that elicits the flickering humanity of the Isle’s evil denizens.VIDEO:Color / AVC h.264 / 1080p / 4:3 / FullscreenAUDIO:Japanese: AC-3 MonoSUBTITLES: Removable English SubtitlesBONUS: Inn of Evil (1971) Original Theatrical Trailer, Interactive Menu
