Fantasy movie title about death captured and released?

[eucac]

Hi guys does anybody knows the title of a certain fantasy film or series.
It is about a man who captures death because of a dying person and place it in a bottle. Then later on he found out that the persons weren't happy anymore and waited for their death. In the end he released death.

Hope you could help me.

There is a very old film titled "On Borrowed Time", but he's captured in a tree.
