If you loved The Shogun Assassins, try The Kyoto Connection
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 Sadao Nakajima, and they both carry the dread mood tag, and they sit in Action / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Shogun Assassins, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Kyoto Connection is
You board a plane in Seattle and step into Kyoto’s neon haze. An easy smile steers you to a walk-up where you wait on the floor, wrists cuffed to a pipe. The man keeps flipping pages of a dog-eared manual between bouts of silence. Outside, a festival drum pulses like a heartbeat you can’t join.
