The Oil-Hell Murder (Japanese: 女殺油地獄, Hepburn: Onna goroshi abura no jigoku) is a 1992 Japanese drama film directed by Hideo Gosha. It was Gosha's final film, released three months prior to his death in August 1992. The film was Japan's submission to the 65th Academy Awards for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but was not accepted as a nominee.

The story of murder, lust, custom and violence centers around oil sellers in 18th century Osaka. It is based on the bunraku and kabuki play The Woman-Killer and the Hell of Oil by Chikamatsu Monzaemon. The Oil-Hell Murder was released by the Criterion Collection in summer 2013 on their Hulu channel.
