Review of Shogun Assassin (1980) by François C — 12 Apr 2009
This is a G R E A T movie that was banned in America in the 80s. One of my all time favorite samurai films. Although this movie is actually a chopped up, dubbed version of the first two original films (Lone Wolf & Cub) it still holds the presence of a genuinly foreign tale of a lone warrior & his son.
The action is savage & brutal but not enough to be called disgusting. A tale full of entertaining sword fighting, blood squirting violence, that will grab your attention from start to finish, agian & agian.
