User Rating : Awaiting 5 votes
Plot Outline : Although unusually elaborate in some of its set
pieces, The Ceiling at Utsunomiya is similar to many
chambara films of its period. However, it's the first
of Nobuo Nakagawa's movies to include a ghost
(albeit very briefly), and introduces several of the
devices the director was to repeat in later films as
he became more involved in supernatural tales, such as
snakes, bloody head wounds, facial disfigurement,
vengeful spirits, an ambivalent attitude towards
samurai and lengthy tracking shots.

Ripper's Notes :
Enjoy this great samurai movie that has small bits of the ghost and
horror genre that director Nobuo Nakagawa would embrace and excel in,
in the next few years. The source quality is a bit rough but by no
means detracts from the watchability of this flick. It is a wonderful
old samurai movie and i hope you enjoy it as much as i do.
