"Ghost Killer" is a rather unusual supernatural action flick, from Japan. The very different story line see's an ordinary young woman possessed by the spirit, of a ruthless murdered male assassin. On first glance, this sounds heavy but a light touch, with not too serious characterisations, plus a dash of humour and redemption, thrown in, actually works quite well. Pacing is excellent too, with scenes crammed full of well choreographed fist, knife and gun fights. In summary, "Ghost Killer" is supernatural action flick, done the right way. Most definitively worth a look.
