Once long ago I did a body count on that final sequence. I think it was somewhere close to a hundred.

Woah, I had a minute and watched.

Interesting look at Japanese culture.

Subtitler was lazy as hell. They missed a lot of words.

Ending was bizarre, still more dudes to hack up, did they run out of film? Razz

Mifune is epic.

Thanks para. I'd not seen it before and really enjoyed it. It was beautifully filmed and not too hard to follow in spite of the sparse captioning. It's a shame that the follow-up film(s) wasn't/weren't made.

Off the subject: When I was teaching high school, there was a very large kid named 'Okamoto'. The other kids nicknamed him 'Locomoto'. Big Grin
