Just watched this movie and I have to say it is probably the weirdest, strangest, compelling movie I have seen in a long time. It is a samurai-carnival-western-opera that is really difficult to rate.

The acting is not great but as you watch it you suspect it really isn’t supposed to be. The writing and story are also kind of lame but in the best sort of spaghetti western 70’s kung fu movie way. Great cinematography like it was filmed in technicolor back in the 40s.

It is very gory and violent but in a cartoonish way. I don’t know how to recommend it except that it seems like the kind of movie that could draw a cult following. The kind of movie that might get better each time you watch it. You will have to decide for yourself.
