Satan's Sword

大菩薩峠
1960 106 min Action

You're a wandering swordsman in feudal Japan, beholden to no lord. But your unsheathed blade brings only suffering, and soon you're haunted by those you've slain. Misumi's stark violence echoes through chambara cinema. It lingers like a curse.

Directed by Kenji Misumi · Written by Teinosuke Kinugasa
