Some of you might find these interesting, 1st,
@ Friday, May 20 (Sat. morning) @ 02:15 AM,
Jigoku(1960), a story of a man's descent into hell (Jigoku), after he is involved in a hit & run. I saw this a few months ago, & thought it was very intense. BTW, Innuyasha's arch nemisis' name in mentioned, I forgot what the subs were, though.


Then, @ 4 AM:
Tokaido Yotsuya kaidan(1959), though the title does not ring a bell, I may already have seen this one, too. Its web page states:
Brief Synopsis
A samurai's wife returns from the dead for revenge.

This classic Japanese horror movie directed by Nobuo Nakagawa is based on an 18th-century masterpiece written by Nanboku Tsuruya. It is about a woman who haunts her husband after she dies a miserable death. The story has terrified the Japanese people for ages.


TCM actually has been running a few Japanese films per month lately. :p
