If you loved Message from Space, try Shogun's Samurai
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Kinji Fukasaku, and they sit in Action / Adventure territory. If that's the register that drew you to Message from Space, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Shogun's Samurai is
You pace through Edo’s gilded corridors as the second shogun’s body cools and whispers name Iemitsu over his stammer and birthmark. Then the land fractures into brother-led clans and steel sings again. Yagyu sharpens blades for a throne yet carves ruin into his own house. Kurosawa’s storm clouds glide across every slash.
