## Description

Deep in the windswept marshes of war-torn medieval Japan, an impoverished older woman and her daughter-in-law murder lost samurai and sell their belongings for the most meager of sustenance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Amazing
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2021*

I got this on a whim. It sounded interesting, and I was blown away by how good it is. The performances are good, the setting accessible (even though as an American, 14th century history anywhere isn't really part of our education unless we search it out). The relationships between the three main characters are complex and captivating, and there are a ton of extras on the disc and in the booklet that are well worth exploring.

    Tale of survival & punishment for 2 poor women in a swamp during warring years in Japan
  

*by J***G on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2020*

Onibaba – Demon Woman focuses upon a pair of women that live in a swamp in feudal Japan. They strip the bodies of samurai who are killed in battle dumping their bodies into The Hole. That pit is given a prominent role right from the beginning as it is the opening of the film. The weapons and armor the women sell off for food. They have plenty of samurai to pick from as the country was going to hell with war. In times like those the meek like the women can pick upon the powerful. It’s also a lonely life of solitude in the swamp so when a man they know returns from war that causes dissension between the two women. To add to the drama a demon appears as well.The movie’s theme comes down to one of survival. Can the two women maintain their lives in the swamp living off killing samurai, and will the man split them apart? There’s also the demon which is there to punish the two for their transgressions.There is some amazing imagery as well revolving around a mask the women find. Overall, very nicely made movie. Kind of a hybrid drama-ghost story.C

    Great movie - great release
  

*by H***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2022*

If you're thinking about upgrading from DVD or VHS to a new edition - I highly recommend it. Criterion just can't be beat.
