Shigurui: Death Frenzy

Programme notes

Two damaged warriors wear the scars of a violent past. As rivals for the secrets of their master’s sword, and his daughter’s hand, these samurai inflict wounds on each other that would destroy lesser men. The final chapter of their saga unfolds within a brutal tournament arranged to satisfy the bloodlust of a cruel tyrant. The disfigured legends must summon the strength for one last battle.
