Tales from the Dead features four short stories about revenge and learning to appreciate life while you can. It is told from the viewpoint of a young medium, telling tales of her real-life experiences speaking with the dead to a woman she picks up hitchhiking after her car breaks down.
This film is unique in that it is an American production but with Japanese characters and language (it is sub-titled in English).

If you are a fan of Asian horror, definitely add this to your list!
