howdy partner . wez gots u here a review today about a movie far from the wild west more like the far east . it get fight and gut and blood and and a story of vengeance . it lady snowblood . not a horror film and but what i like to call samurai splatter cinema . throughout the 70 japan make several of these and most of them hold a place in my heart for the crazy up ante and ballsy act of on screen violence ( sever arm and leg and decapitation and torso ) and the infamous spray blood most recently in american cinema see in kill bill . smart observer pay attention to how a lot of this film be use to make the kill bill movie . heck even one of the music sequence be rip right from this movie . anyway in brief detail the movie be one of pure vengeance . lady snowblood be hardly introduce to the world and tragedy hit when her mother die from childbirth . a the story progress we discover that 4 people kill her father and little brother and rap her mother . mom be able to kill one of these culprit but it be up to her little assassin snowblood to kill the rest . raise by a samurai she be teach the way of the samurai and once old enough go on her quest for revenge . to say anymore would ruin the film a this be one of the fine revenge movie i have see with a good story and some cool swordplay . if you be into lone wolf and cub or the shadow warrior series from the 70 do yourself a favor and check this out . this movie be one that live up to the hype . positive represent excellent film on many facet and one of the best samurai film of the 70 . animego have do a very good job with there dvd release of this film a they have with all the samurai cinema release they have put out . the subtitle be easy to read and do the movie justice . so hunt this down and enjoy every blood drench second .
