After stealing a mysterious figurine from the tomb of the peasant Chu-Tzu, a greedy landlord returns to his mansion to find the rooftop covered in crows. Ignoring his servants' warnings that crows portend danger, the landlord throws a banquet to celebrate his new treasure. But as foretold, disaster strikes, and the figurine is rescued from the ruins of the landlord's property by a passing scavenger. Flash forward one hundred years. The figurine, known as Xiwangmu, reappears in a New York City antiques store and is purchased by a wealthy collector whose well-ordered penthouse life can't dispel his boredom. Acquiring the statuette turns the collector's boredom into terror and a struggle to survive as the curse of crows reasserts itself. Finally, in a future world ravaged by nuclear fire, the Xiwangmu is discovered yet again by a low-ranking servant to engineers, this time in a surprising new form-its curse transformed by the love of two men for each other into a cosmic blessing.
