La posada del mal

You arrive at a remote inn run by smugglers during Japan's closed-border era. You carry stolen money to ransom your lover. But betrayal runs deep within the criminal enterprise. Kobayashi's widescreen compositions, full of shadow, elevate the genre elements. The film lingers on duty and desire.
