If you loved Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, try Ninja Scroll
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 Yoshiaki Kawajiri, and they sit in Action / Animation / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Ninja Scroll is
You're a wandering swordsman in feudal Japan, selling your skills. But a plague decimates a village, and then you're drawn into a web of warring clans. Kawajiri's hyperkinetic animation set a bar for action, influencing live-action cinema. The film pulses.
