The Messenger of Evil | Akira Nishiguchi | 1963 | 1/2

Everything seemed to be going well for Akira Nishiguchi. While he was previously a recurring criminal who had been in and out of prison for roughly 10 years, he had picked up a job as a delivery driver, and had even saved his marriage. However, all this would be for naught as he drove up a remote mountain road in late 1963; where he would murder and rob his 2 fellow travelers, and begin his spree as the "messenger of evil". Part 1 - We explore the background of Akira Nishiguchi, his past life, his relationships, his previous crimes, and how he ended up as the "Messenger of Evil". Part 2 - We pick up from the moment he embarks on his shocking killing spree, and the investigation that would lead to his eventual capture.
