Guest venoms5 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 The HANZO Box set is out. Best Buy has it for $40. Anybody else get it? Interesting to see Katsu play such a character in light of the ZATOICHI movies. These three are more like the BABY CART films with alot of sex and torture added to the mix.

Guest kungfusamurai Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Is it by Home Vision? Someone mentioned they were releasing it. I'll keep an eye out for it. KFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Linn1 Posted April 12, 2005 Member Share Posted April 12, 2005 it's at best buy at that price. I would guess it's the same online, but it's cheaper just to pick it up. It's in their action section BTW, not Martial Arts or boxsets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Violento Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 These three are more like the BABY CART films with alot of sex and torture added to the mix. Which is why Zatoichi is so cool. The makers of the series proved that You can make splendid chambara films without all that exploitation crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Linn1 Posted April 14, 2005 Member Share Posted April 14, 2005 that chambara with exploitation elements are the minority. The majority of samurai films don't have "all that exploitation crap." When something comes along that's unusual, like the Hanzo series, it gets more notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sakura2004 Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I saw part 2 at the theatre when it was first released in the early 70s. After being a life-long fan, it was the last straw that killed my interest in the genre till a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
