Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted January 16, 2009 Member Share Posted January 16, 2009 I saw this at Suncoast and was wondering if anyone has seen it. Looks like a survival story where Sonny Chiba is being chased by a bear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted January 16, 2009 Administrator Share Posted January 16, 2009 Hey Morgoth- Chiba-san directed this and it crushed him financially. :(Apparently he sunk a lot of his own money into this passion project -based on a true story- and it flopped at the box office. I didn't know he was in it though. I think it stars Hiroyuki "Henry" Sanada. Haven't seen it yet, but I just ordered it. If you get it, please let us know what you think.

Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted January 16, 2009 Author Member Share Posted January 16, 2009 Thanks fot the info. It looks interesting. I think you are right Chiba doesn't star in it. I'll get it next week but today I chose to get Battle Wizard instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member AlbertV Posted January 17, 2009 Member Share Posted January 17, 2009 I think it was because of the failure of the film that he ended up having to sell his rights to the Japanese Action Club, which he founded. Something of that nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Cognoscente Posted June 8, 2021 Member Share Posted June 8, 2021 So this film is like Leonardo DiCaprio's The Revenant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member dionbrother Posted June 9, 2021 Member Share Posted June 9, 2021 More like JAWS in the snow, except without excitement or suspense. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
