Sada Abe
This film was the middle entry in director Tanaka's "Showa Era Trilogy", which includes "A Woman Called Sada Abe" (1975) and "" (1977). All three films star Junko Miyashita. The story was based on a novel by the Japanese horror-mystery writer, Edogawa Rampo. It had been filmed as a "pink film" in 1970 by director Akitaka Kimata, and Akio Jissoji remade "Watcher in the Attic" in 1995 in one of the earliest un-fogged "pink films". The uncensored version of Jissoji's film was released internationally, though the Japanese theatrical release of this film was fogged.
