An action movie with comedy & horror elements, directed by Sonomura Kensuke, action director of the 'Baby Assassins' movies (see this post), written by Sakamoto Yugo and starring Takaishi Akari, both of the same franchise. Released on digital 2025 July 22nd.

After being possessed by the ghost of vengeful hit man Kudo, college student Matsuoka Fumika agrees to help him finish his quest for vengeance from beyond the grave.

Review

Given his experience in the genre, former martial arts choreographer Kensuke Sonomura’s new feature “Ghost Killer” tackles themes like female empowerment and domestic violence while also showcasing his trademark skills when it comes to fight scenes. At the same time, Sonomura aims to add comedic and horror elements to the story, thus creating a sometimes uneven, but undeniably stylish movie.
