What Sword of the Beast is
You're a disgraced samurai, fleeing betrayal for supposed crimes. But survival means kinship with bandits in the forest. When the Shogun's gold is at stake, allegiances shift. Gosha's widescreen compositions find beauty in the muck. The film lingers on the moral compromises of its leads.
