The demonic Hikita clan rises from the grave to fulfill a curse on the Satomi clan by resurrecting their warlord's visage with Princess Shizu's flesh. The clan murders her entire family in the course of capturing her, but Princess Shizu escapes. She enlists the services of eight samurai warriors, all of them are in possession of a strong magical crystal and are headed by Dosetsu (Sonny Chiba!) to help her free the remaining members of her court and exact revenge on her family. They must combat undead soldiers, demonic spirits, poisoned beauty, and a monstrous centipede along the way.
