ONIBABA

Original 11 inch x 8 7/8 inch Black and White Still for the 1964 Kaneto Shindô Japanese Horror Movie ONIBABA starring Nobuko Otowa, Jitsuko Yoshimura, Kei Satô, Jûkichi Uno and Taiji Tonoyama.

Deep within the wind-swept marshes of war-torn medieval Japan, an impoverished mother and her daughter-in-law eke out a lonely, desperate existence. Forced to murder lost samurai and sell their belongings for grain, they dump the corpses down a deep, dark hole and live off of their meager spoils. When a bedraggled neighbor returns from the skirmishes, lust, jealousy, and rage threaten to destroy the trio’s tenuous existence, before an ominous, ill-gotten demon mask seals the trio’s horrifying fate.

The still, on doubleweight paper, is in very good condition.
