One family, two films, thirty years apart.

Legendary Japanese director Kon Ichikawa’s 1976 film The Inugami Family, holds a very special place in Japan’s long tradition of supernatural suspense. Based on Seishi Yokomizo’s epic work, the slow-burning family murder mystery is a highly-influential title in the director’s celebrated filmography, and just about required viewing for Japanese cinema fans.

The Inugami Family

When tycoon Inugami Sahei passes away, he unexpectedly leaves the family fortune to outsider Tamayo on the condition that she marry one of the Inugami grandsons – Sukekiyo, Suketake, or Suketomo – pitting blood against blood. Soon afterwards, members of the family begin to show up dead, one by one. Detective Kindaichi Kosuke is called in to investigate the murders, and the truth is slowly revealed as he happens upon years of hidden skeletons and a shocking family secret.

Murder of the Inugami Clan

A web of deceit, adultery and greed manifests in Kon Ichikawa's remake of his own 1976 hit about a murder investigation that reveals years of hidden skeletons and a shocking family secret.
