PLOT

Igami would have wanted to be a manga artist, but he become an exorcist. And in this, he excels. When a yakuza boss asks for his help in dealing with a grave curse, he realizes that a supernatural insect master is active behind the scenes. Furthermore, a great master of the supernatural is putting Tokyo in danger. Igami decides to delve into his arsenal of tricks and spells to thwart these plans.

Director Lee Shu-Mak delivers a movie that could have been a manga or a Su- shi Typhoon flick. Which is unsurprising, when you know the film’s produced by the Japanese godfather of splatter himself: Yoshihiro Nishimura, responsible for such demented gorefests as Tokyo Gore Police or Vampire Girls vs Frankenstein Girl.
