From the makers of Daimajin comes a trilogy of terror ripped from the pages of Japanese folklore, with ghosts and monsters from ancient myths and legends brought to life through stunning special effects, alongside an epic, big-budget reboot of the series from a modern-day master of the macabre, now available together on Blu-ray for the first time.
In the first film in the trilogy, 100 Monsters, a greedy slumlord’s attempts to forcefully evict his tenants invite the wrath of the titular spirits when a cleansing ritual is botched, with terrifying results. The second film, Spook Warfare, tells the tale of an evil Babylonian vampire inadvertently awoken by treasure hunters, and a brave samurai that teams with the yokai to defeat the bloodthirsty demon. In the final film, Along with Ghosts (released only 12 months after 100 Monsters), the yokai are roused to defend a young girl on the run from deadly yakuza.
Decades later, none other than Takashi Miike (Audition) helmed The Great Yokai War, a loose remake of Spook Warfare that used cutting-edge digital effects to renew the franchise for a new generation. In it, a young boy is given a grave responsibility: to band together with a group of yokai to defend humanity against a vengeful and powerful demon that has sworn retribution against modern-day Japan.

Awesome collection of both classic and modern Yokai films
Great set, extremely pleased with the whole package. Lovely sturdy box with the original art houses the whole thing, and also provided is a fold out poster detailing some of the more significant yokai appearing in the films (one side pure art, the other with details for each one). Reversible dvd case covers give the option to switch between classic Japanese movie posters, or the modern new artwork. The accompanying book is a great series of essays on the classic films, including a history of Daiei's yokai cinema and Shigeru Mizuki, the writer behind much of the popularity behind the world of Japanese mythological monsters. Great to see the classics finally available in the west, and I'd recommend the modern remake also included here to absolutely anyone as awesome cinema,
