The Inferno

Miho’s husband finds out about her and Ryuzo. He goes after the two of them; Ryuzo is killed and Miho, who is pregnant, is left badly hurt. Before she dies Miho gives birth to her daughter Aki. Twenty years later Aki is a young woman who looks like her mother and drives racing cars. For some time she has felt that a force is trying to kill her. To work out her past she goes back to the remote village where her mother died. There is the family that refused to take her in as a baby. The film shows hell through the sins and the shame of that family. The work is a remake of Jigoku of 1960, and Tatsumi Kumashiro’s film of 1979 runs a hundred and thirty one minutes.
