	Kurogane’s Anime Blog » Jigoku Shoujo
		This episode is about Saki, whose father died in an apparent suicide, but she knows otherwise because the night that he died, Saki saw some incriminating evidence involving the mayor of the city, leading her to suspect that her father’s death was caused by the mayor, Kusunoki.
		Also the devious nature of the Jigoku Tsuushin group is revealed here, as whatever it is, they’re not going to interfere in anyways and just act as watchers, seeing how they let Kaoruko lose her voice and then finally letting her become the contractor in the end.
		She tries the Jigoku Tsuushin out of desperation and the pervert is nicely dealt with by Enma and her associates.

	Jigoku Shoujo ep.1 at Memento
		Just as she throws herself of a high-rise, however, Jigoku Shoujo appears next to her and transport her to another realm, one that looks like it's enveloped in everlasting sunset.
		Jigoku Shoujo introduces herself as Enma Ai and tells Mayumi that she calls for her.
		Judging from the kind of carriage that she gets to hop on, it seems her role as Jigoku Shoujo is quite special amongst the land of the dead.

	SaruDama: Jigoku - Hell (Ishii Teruo 1999) - Japanese Movies (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The original is director Nakagawa Nobuo's 1960 Jigoku which is deemed a classic among film aficionados but remains generally unseen by Western audiences.
		In Ishii's Jigoku we witness both underworld and earthly scenarios through the eyes of Rika, a young woman graciously granted a vision of hell by the underworld's Lord Emma.
		Ishii is clearly presenting Jigoku as a type of social catharsis whereby some sense of justice and retribution against an otherwise senseless social crime might be perceived.

	metamovie.de - Jigoku (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Tempted by a "friend" (a devil in disguise), our hero gets caught in a web of moral confusion: chaos ensues, destructive emotions spread, songs, narrative short-cuts, meaningless suffering and ever-growing absurdities finally get us to the point where all protagonists are dead.
		However, this part of Jigoku does tend to get overshadowed by its closing third, which is set in hell itself, abounding with no-budget, but beautiful and sometimes very gory set-pieces.
		Jigoku remains a true oddity, a visual feast and a warning against eating fish.

	Jigoku
		The concept of the afterlife, and more specifically Hell (which is what Jigoku translates to in English and is an alternate title for the film, which is also known as The Sinners Of Hell) is a common one that seems to appear in almost every major religion.
		Jigoku manages to remain a fascinating movie regardless of how overdone the subject may be, and despite the fact that the film is over forty years old.
		But whereas Marins’ vision of Hell is probably influenced by the Catholic Church and his own bizarre imagination, director Nobuo Nakagawa paints his version of the inferno in colorful hues and fills them with traditional Japanese representations of the demonic.

	SciFi Japan » DVD REVIEW: JIGOKU
		JIGOKU was one of the last movies produced by Shintoho, the studio formed in the wake of the “Flag of Ten” labor strike at Toho.
		JIGOKU was made as Shintoho’s distribution system collapsed and — while it did well in the theaters it played — was given a spotty theatrical release.
		JIGOKU was rarely seen in the United States, but in 2004 the Japan Society of New York and the American Cinematheque in Los Angeles screened an English subtitled 35mm print from distributor Kokusai Hoei.

	Beppu Hot Springs - Geo-Heat Bulletin Vol. 17 No. 2 Article
		The word "jigokus" originates from the "burning hell" of the Buddhist sutras, and the Beppu jigokus truly remind one of "burning hells." The Bozu jigoku, contains boiling gray viscous mud which bubbles incessantly with a menacing sound.
		Tatsumaki jigoku (water-spout hell) is a geyser which forcefully shoots up water to a height of 20 meters (82 ft) every 25 minutes.
		This Jigoku is a hydrothermal eruption crater (Figure 10), and eruptions were recorded nine times during the period from 1875 to 1927 (Yoshida, et al., 1978).

	Midnight Eye review: Jigoku (1960)
		Shintoho was formed by a number of prominent stars and directors who left Toho after a series of strikes at the larger company in 1947 (Shintoho means literally, "New Toho").
		Many of these pictures starred Jigoku's main protagonist, the elfin Amachi, who later turned up in The Beast and the Magic Sword (El Bestia y la Espade Mágica, 1983), a Japanese co-production with Spanish horror icon Paul Naschy.
		In its native land the Nakagawa's Jigoku has been the subject of two remakes - in 1979 by Tatsumi Kumashiro, and a recent release in 1999 from Joys of Torture maverick, Teruo Ishii - though the original has hardly been seen by viewers outside of Japan.

		As a result, Nube has a demonic left hand where his own hand used to be.
		Jigoku Sensei Nube isn't about Satanism or devil worship, it is clearly a fantasy about a man fighting evil spirits.
		Jigoku Sensei Nube's anime art is cuter and a bit more refined compared to the manga art.

	filmjourney.org : Koroneko, Jigoku
		The movie is not a suspense picture, its mixture of realism and outlandish twists of fate makes it a never-ending string of surprises, more a Grand Guignol fl comedy about the human condition than a horror film of dreaded anticipation.
		Jigoku, however, is a film more about the theatricality of its horrors and its playfully cruel take on Fate than anything else.
		It may not be Dostoevskian in its thematic exploration of guilt, but as a stylish, remarkably original morality tale that manages to balance its sensationalistic terrors with cutting social critique, it's a one-of-a-kind achievement.

	BLACK MOON - Jigoku - Hell, a film by Nobuo Nakagawa
		The widescreen film was Nakagawa's first color movie, but it would also be the first horror film of its kind produced anywhere in the world.
		Jigoku was a phantasmagoric nightmare of unrelenting morbidity, a glimpse of Hell and its eternal torments that must have outraged viewers when it first opened.
		It took Nakagawa seven months to shoot Jigoku, and much of the production was funded with his own money.

	Jigoku Shoujo Archive at Memento
		However, Jigoku Shoujo's way of telling a story is quite limited and therefore, without some kind of an arc, each episode feels a bit repetitive.
		I have to admit that the item is a brilliant choice because it serves dual function to protect you from rain and from uninvited guest.
		It is available in several colour choice including light creme (just like the face of your fake personality), fl (similar to the color of your skin when it gets burned in hell), and red (the way you'll bleed for us in hell).

		Plot Summary: Somewhere in the vast sea of the Internet, there's a website that can only be accessed at the stroke of midnight.
		Known as the Jigoku Tsushin, rumor has it that if you post a grudge there, the Jigoku Shoujo will appear and drag whoever torments you into the inferno.
		Very little is known about the girl - all we know for sure is that she lives with her equally enigmatic grandmother, that three magical straw dolls accompany and serve her, and that whenever a posting on the Jigoku Tsushin moves her, she becomes the Jigoku Shoujo.

	The DVD Maniacs - Forum - "JIGOKU" (1960) And "GHOST STORY OF YOTSUYA" (1959) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		I bought the JIGOKU DVD at least a year and a half ago for a higher price ($50.00).
		They have Greek releases of Jigoku, Mansion of the Ghost Cat and Ghost Story of Yotsuya that are $20 less than the Japanese releases, and are supposedly identical.
		But alas, the other 15 Japanese films they company owns are really bad 60's and 70's films that are so horrible, it be like throwing away money after you piss on it and and give it to your mother.

		I personally think spamming someone else's computer/email/blog by repeatedly asking for the same thing, or by advertising things without their consent is rude.
		When Misato tells her that it's difficult to do, Misato threatens her that failure means that Misato will have to return to life as a shoplifter.
		Misato immediately remembers about Jigoku Tsuushin and types in Riho's name as the hit man is closing in on her.

	The Criterion Collection: Jigoku
		In the gloriously gory final third of the film, Nakagawa offers up his vision of the underworld in a tour de force of torture and degradation.
		A striking departure from traditional Japanese ghost stories, Jigoku, with its truly eye-popping (and -gouging) imagery, created aftershocks that are still reverberating in contemporary world horror cinema.
		Jigoku is presented in its original aspect ratio of 2.35:1.

		What’s the matter?” Jigoku leaned over, reaching his arm behind her back and holding her by the waist, executing an awkward hug.
		She returned with an equally hasty embrace, and he let his arm rest by her neck, his fingers touching her shoulders lightly.
		She relaxed and apologized to him, but refused to meet Jigoku’s eyes.
