The undead Hikita clan attempts to lift a curse on the Satomi line by crafting their warlord’s face from Princess Shizu’s skin. After they slaughter her family, Shizu escapes and enlists eight crystal‑armed samurai, led by Dosetsu (Sonny Chiba), to rescue the court and avenge her kin. They battle undead warriors, evil spirits, poisonous beauties and a giant centipede.
