One of the best samurai series from the 60s with plenty of action vs the rich & corrupt
This collection features the last four films in the Sleepy Eyes of Death series. This was one of the most successful set of films released in Japan in the 1960s. They are like Film Noir with a cynical hero, women throwing themselves at him, and an array of powerful and corrupt villains he has to dispatch.<br /><br />The first release A Trail of Traps continues the series exploitation style handling of Christianity. It begins with another retelling of the birth of the hero Nemuri Kyoshiro in a Satanic ritual by a Portuguese priest who raped his mother. He’s then contacted by an official who is trying to keep a golden statue of the Virgin Mary safe from a Satanic group called the Black Fingers Cult. In ancient Japan Christianity was banned and the Sleepy Eyes of Death plays upon that history portraying the religion as an evil brought to the country by foreigners.<br /><br />In Hell Is A Woman two different factions of the Saeki clan ask Kyoshiro for help to seize power. As usual they employ women to either entice him or kill him. He even runs into a blind woman that first tries to seduce Kyoshiro and then slay him by spitting darts at him. Basically everywhere the hero turns there are women trying to manipulate him hence the title.<br /><br />In The Spider’s Lair two children of the Shogun amuse themselves by torturing and killing people believing that their positions give them the right to do anything to anyone. This is another story of excess by the powerful that Kyoshiro has to right.<br /><br />Finally, in Castle Menagerie Kyoshiro is being framed for a number of murders and rape by someone trying to impersonate him. That leads to all kinds of people chasing after him including ninja sent from the Shogunate. It turns out that the Shogun’s harem is trying ot use his name in their own plots within the court to eliminate rivals.<br /><br />All 12 movies in the series are something to watch. They lay out the stories right at the start and then get down to the action as Kyoshiro slices and dices his way through his opponents. He may act like he doesn’t care but he despises the powerful manipulating the common people.<br />C
