Onibaba
A woman and her daughterinlaw live by killing samurai who drift in their swamp, afterward selling anything valuables that they find while her son, Kichi, is away at war. His wife soon begins an affair with a neighbor who survived the war, although both are devastated when they learn that Kichi has expired. The mother tries to frighten her daughterinlaw with an mask out of a samurai and, when she can't steal Hachi for herself, disapproves.
