Onibaba (1964, Japan, Dir. Kaneto Shindō)

Two women survive a civil war by killing stray soldiers — until a demon mask enters the picture.
Filmed in black-and-white reeds that move like whispers, Onibaba turns hunger, lust, and guilt into one eerie, sweaty parable.
The real monster isn’t the mask — it’s desperation itself.
