If you loved Bohachi Bushido: Code of the Forgotten Eight, try The Executioner
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
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.
