About Woman from the Sea
While in vacation in a sea side house, a young man fall in love with a beautiful woman who pretends to live by herself in the sea. The fishermen of a nearby village think she is a monster, the female of a shark killed many years before, responsible for many disappearances.
Directed by Koreyoshi Kurahara, Woman from the Sea leans on a strong ensemble — Hisako Tsukuba, Tamio Kawachi, Sadao Mizutani — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1959.
