StoneKeeper's Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #1362 [Kuroneko (1968) Winner: hownos]
I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.
For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.

Hownos wins with Black Cat (1968), more commonly known as Kuroneko until IMDb recently decided to translate the title to English for some reason even though most English-speaking viewers know it by its Japanese name. Set in the Heian period of ancient Japan, it's about two women who are raped and murdered by samurai warriors and return as vengeful spirits to kill any samurai they come across. Highly recommended if you're looking for a good horror movie to watch this October.
