In one of the most notorious horror films ever made, recent widower Shigeharu (Ryo Ishibashi) sets out to find a new wife by staging an “audition.” Interviewing a series of women, Shigeharu becomes enchanted by Asami (Eihi Shiina), a quiet, twenty-four-year-old woman who is immediately responsive to his charms. But soon things take a very dark and twisted turn as we find that Asami isn’t who she seems. Director Takashi Miike’s international breakthrough employs delirious editing and shocking visuals as it twists and turns its way towards one of the most harrowing climaxes in cinema history.
