If you loved The Wife of Seishu Hanaoka, try Die Tätowierung
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Yasuzō Masumura, and they both carry the dread mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Wife of Seishu Hanaoka, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Die Tätowierung is
A snowy bridge. Footsteps. Otsuya flees her father's house with a clerk, only to find herself prey for a tattoo artist with a demonic vision. Ink blooms on her back, and her fate twists. Masumura's film is a feverish, lurid brand of transgression.
