Sixth Sense Hooker

Takaaki Hashiguchi, 2001, 60 mins

AKA The Girl with a Sixth Sense

AKA Abunômaru taiken: Dai-roku no seikan

Yuki is a sought-after prostitute, who also has a special ability: she can see ghosts. This ‘gift’ makes her distraught as the sights of ghosts start to impact and affect her work, then one of the ghosts makes an attempt to communicate with her and asks for her help. Yuki tries to understand and help the ghost in the hope that by doing so she will stop being plagued by these spectral visitors… A dark and sexual tale of the supernatural.

Another unusual Pinku title, in that it mixes horror with erotica; also available is The Doll House, from the same director, and also starring Hotaro Hazuki.

‘A decidedly decent watch…an erotic-themed remake’
