One of the best and least known of Daiei's horror films of the late 60s, during the final days of their greatness. Based on the same Lafcadio Hearn "Yuki Onna" story told in Masaki Kobayashi's classic film "Kwaidan", but otherwise unrelated, Kaidan Yuki Jorou features one of the most beautiful and unforgettable female monsters in all of Japanese cinema. The word "jorou" literally translates to "prostitute" in Japanese, but the symbolic sense here is one of corruption or evil, in contrast with the visual purity of snow. Consideration of the story of "Snow White" may illustrate the idea in the choice of title, particularly as the character of the title character is in no way a whore, but does possess both a light and a dark side.
