Akemi, A female yakuza leader (Meiko Kaji) kills a rival boss and accidentally blinds his daughter, Aiko (Hoki Tokuda), who seeks revenge. A bizarre blend of the female yakuza film and traditional Japanese ghost story with a strong dash of grotesque erotica, BLIND WOMAN’S CURSE is a delirious mash-up of classic genre tropes.
