"Eye-poppingly stylized... impudently funny." - VarietyA riotous, bloody, all-action historical epic set in 19th Century Tokyo. Akira Kobayashi (Kanto Wanderer) stars as a coal-miner who leads a rebellion against a vicious tyrant, played with
villainous relish by Suzuki regular Tamio Kawaji.
Add to this a heady mix of violence, gang fights, blackmail, bribery, assassins, trade unionism, a tattooed bandit-geisha femme fatale, yakuzas, adultery, sword fights, gun fights, loyalty and
treachery, unrequited love, superb settings and extraordinary camera work make this a jaw-dropping adventure that proves fertile ground for Suzuki's cinematic obsessions.
