Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters

One Hundred Yōkai Tales) is a 1968 Japanese fantasy horror film directed by Kimiyoshi Yasuda, with special effects by Yoshiyuki Kuroda.

It is the first in a trilogy of films produced in the late 1960s, which focus around Japanese monsters known collectively as yōkai.

A rich landowner intends to tear down a local shrine and other houses to build a brothel.

He holds a Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai ceremony during which various tales of yōkai are told, such as the tales of kasa-obake (an umbrella tsukumogami), and a long-necked rokurokubi.

However, the landowner omits the purification ceremony at the end to ward off the evil spirit conjured up during the telling of tales, after which the landowner and his supporters are scared to death or driven mad by the angered spirits, who at the end of the movie are seen parading out of the town with barrels of sake .
