SAMURAI WOLF (1966) - Kiba okaminosuke

Slash! Pure action samurai "western", 21 April 2006 - rating: 8/10
Author: Chung Mo from NYC

Stark, stylistic and no fooling around. Solid samurai action as a wandering ronin,
"The Vicious Wolf", wanders into a volatile situation at a remote relay post. Of
course there's a couple of beautiful woman and nasty political intrigue involved.
Interesting characters abound many are master killers with fearsome reputations.
The Vicious Wolf is a quirky character with a bizarre fighting style but his
intentions are good if you get past his lack of bathing and his tendency to announce
that he has no money after eating at an inn or using the services of a prostitute.

Director Gosha is clearly the stylistic inspiration for many Italian western directors,
more so than Kurosawa. Too bad most spaghetti westerns never came close to this film.

Excellent sword fighting, great photography, unique direction and a good cast.


SAMURAI WOLF 2 (1967) - Kiba okaminosuke jigoku giri, L'enfer des sabres

Good follow-up to "Samurai Wolf", 21 April 2006
Author: Chung Mo from NYC

Highly enjoyable sequel to the excellent Samurai Wolf. "Furious Wolf" this time is
caught in the intrigue between a crooked gold mine owner and a mysterious swordsman
who resembles his long dead father. Once again there's a beautiful woman involved
and lots of furious sword fights.

The Samurai Wolf films have a number of similarities to the Lone Wolf and Son series
of the seventies and a bit of debt to the Zatoichi series. First, the eccentric sword
work of Furious Wolf is very much in the vein of Zatoichi while not imitating it.
Second, the geysers of blood that erupt from vanquished villains foretell the much
more absurd blood-letting of Lone Wolf.

Once again the photography is excellent and the cast is as good.

...and that means BitLord too, since it's a vomit hack.
