If you loved Bohachi Bushido: Code of the Forgotten Eight, try The Executioner

Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.

Was sie teilen

Both films are directed by Teruo Ishii, and they sit in Action territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bohachi Bushido: Code of the Forgotten Eight, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Executioner is

You’re a masterless ninja drawn into a contract with a former cop turned assassin. Takeshi Hayato needs muscle against a drug lord tied to a vanished shipment. The job feels like suicide by syndicate. Teruo Ishii stages every blade flash like a kabuki kill, leaving the alley slick and the body count final.
