Part 2/8:
The movie begins in the aftermath of the Shimabara rebellion, where the ruling Tokugawa shogunate annihilated 37,000 Christian rebels. The brutal execution of the mutineers, including their leader Amakusa Shiro, serves as a stark reminder of the oppressive regime's strength. However, this apparent victory is quickly overshadowed by the emergence of a demonic force. As the rebels’ heads are displayed on pikes, a theatrical performance is interrupted by a bolt of lightning, heralding the resurrection of Amakusa, who now seeks revenge against the samurai who wronged him.
