    SWORD OF THE BEAST (1965) - REMASTERED
    Price:  $12.99 

    Description:

    Kedamono No Ken - Legendary swordplay filmmaker Hideo Gosha's Sword of the Beast chronicles the flight of Gennosuke, a minor clan Samurai who is tricked under the banner of "reform," into assassinating a high-ranking minister. He has been promised position and prestige for his bold act. Instead, his sponsor soon turns on him, claiming no knowledge of the plot and demands Gennosuke's death.
    Realizing his "Samurai Honor" is a house of cards, he flees into the wilderness, determined to become a beast, living only for himself. Pursued by his former comrades, each hoping to complete the vendetta put on Gennosuke by the clan, he scrambles only to live, refusing to play his role and lay down and die.
    Encountering the Master Swordsman Yamane, another idealistic Samurai who is being played the fool by another clan, Gennosuke is determined to enlighten Yamane and his pretty wife before they too become beasts, abandoned and betrayed.
    Well-composed and thoughtful cinematography, Sword of the Beast gives a cynical view of authority, human drama, and OF COURSE, some excellent swordplay!
