VENGEANCE IS SUCH A GREAT BUSINESS
(Sukedachiya Sukeroku)

This is the final movie from Okamoto Kihachi, the filmmaker who directed such great movies as “Sword Of Doom”, “Kill”, and “Red Lion”. With an equal mix of violence and humor he has forged a career that spanned over 4 decades and created some of the most memorable films to ever come out of Japan. This is no exception, and the hand of a master is evident in his treatment of this highly entertaining story.

In a world where vendettas are officially sanctioned, the people sometimes needed help in carrying out their vengeance. Sanada Hiroyuki stars as Sukeroku the Helper, a ‘cool and rambling yakuza’ that has made a business out of helping victims carry out their revenge. When he returns to his hometown to pay a visit to his mother’s grave he meets a deadly ronin who carries a secret which eventually leads him into a vendetta of his own. With terrific performances by Sanada and Nakadai Tatsuya as the mysterious old ronin, this film brings back the golden era of Japanese cinema!

ZATOICHI TV - GRAND FINALE

For the first time ever, the Grand Finale of the Zato Ichi story comes to DVD. These two episodes were written and directed by one of Japan's most distinguished filmmakers Teshigahara Hiroshi and elevate the Blind Swordsman from genre hero to fine art. After 25 feature films from 1962 through 1974, the television series lasted 4 years and helped keep alive the legend of the blind wandering gambler/masseur with the lightning fast sword. There were 100 episodes over the 4 seasons and while all of them are very good to excellent, this 2 part finale brings the series and the character to an exciting conclusion unlike anything that ever went before or after.

Episode 99: "The Rainbow Journey" takes Ichi to the inner chambers of a daimyo lord's concubine. A beautiful woman with a deadly secret holds the key to a treasure chest containing 1,000 gold coins. Can Ichi survive against the political activists who want to bring down the government with their bloody blades?

Episode 100: "The Dream Journey" intersperses Ichi's innermost fears and desires with the harsh realities of being a blind man who dreams only of being able to see the sun once more before he dies. With spectacular cinematography and plenty of dynamic swordplay, can Ichi conquer fear and defeat his most formidable adversary?

See Zato Ichi like never before in this stunning work of art!

READ A REVIEW OF THIS MOVIE FROM

THE E-ZINE DEVOTED TO THE LATEST & BEST IN JAPANESE CINEMA

 

In 1932, three top students of master instructor Shibahara Eikan are challenged by the Japanese Military Police, the dreaded “Kenpeitai” when the army wants to take over their dojo. Japan was in a state of rising militarism during the 1930’s. As the land of the Rising Sun moved deeper into China by taking over Manchuria, the power of the Imperial Army was growing and liberal leaning politicians like Prime Minister Inukai Tsuyoshi were being assassinated as part of an attempted coup. Against this backdrop the special permission granted by the government to operate a dojo was rescinded and would lead to not only the death of Shibahara-sensei, but a pitched battle between his students to determine who would inherit their master’s Kuro-Obi (Black Belt) as head of the style. When one of the three is forced to leave, he gets involved with a family who are being pressured to sell their daughter to the yakuza so the Military Police can use her as a “Comfort Woman” (essentially a prostitute for the troops). When her little brother sets out to save her it brings to a head the showdown that would settle once and for all the succession of the style. Featuring real-life karate masters this is one of the finest martial arts movies ever made. A film festival favorite last year, this 2007 production is a masterpiece of Japanese cinema.

THE MAGOICHI SAGA (Shirikurae Magoichi)

Starring:
NAKAMURA Kinnosuke, KATSU Shintaro,
HONGO Kojiro, SHIMURA Takashi


Anamorphic Widescreen (16:9) Presentation with English subtitles
Bonus material: Subtitled trailers and Photo Gallery

During the Sixteenth Century, ODA Nobunaga was gaining power with his right hand man KINOSHITA Tokichiro at his side. Recognizing that guns win wars, ODA tries to enlist the aid of SAIKA Magoichi, a flashy samurai with exceptional 'Yari' (Spear) skills and his troop of gunners. Powerful performances by some of Japan's greatest actors highlight this historical drama from brilliant director MISUMI Kenji. KATSU Shintaro as ODA Nobunaga matches wits with NAKAMURA Kinnosuke as Magoichi, the one man that is not afraid of him. Not widely known outside of Japan, this is a fine film with a rich tapestry of Japan and the people who
united the nation.
