 RPGnet: Review of Legend of the Eight Samurai
This gem is a costume horror flick from 1983 set during Japan’s feudal period that plays like a moody cross between Krull and Star Wars sans the science fiction elements.
Cast: Hiroko Yakushimaru, Hiroyuki Sanada, Sonny Chiba, Etsuko Shihomi, Yuki Meguro, Mari Natsuki, Nana Okada, Masaki Kyomoto, Kenji Ohba, Nagare Hagiwara, Seizo Fukumoto, Mikio Narita, Tadashi Naruse, Minori Terada, Taiji Tonoyama.
The story underpinning Legend of the Eight Samurai is very much a dark fairy tale akin to what the Grim Brothers might have written, unexpurgated and free of Disneyesque sillifying, had they written a volume of Japanese fairy tails.
