I'm surprised you didn't include Yojimbo or Sanjuro in there! Killer's Mission is pretty entertaining, as well as the Wicked Priest films.

Harakiri - I don't know if this can be considered strictly a samurai film. Just like with Incident at Blood Pass, there is hardly any fighting until near the end. They are great dramas, but are they strictly samurai films?

Yeah you right, Harakiri is not a samurai film but it is awesome.

Then what about

"Tenchu/Hitokiri" by Gosha Hideo

"Goyokin" Gosha Hideo

Thank you for making sure that I was right.

I just love "Seppuku", I dont know why, but it is so intense.

I bought the R2 Japanese DVD and it is awesome to the bone....

No one has mentioned Yojimbo or the greatest one of all Seven Samurai

I think Seven Samurai and Yojimbo are too good for a top 10 list. They are tops without saying. :)
