5.0 out of 5 stars Super cool independent violent comic book movie, October 8, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Blood of the Samurai (DVD)

I was fortunate enough to catch this great film in the theatres when it opened at the Hawaii International Film Festival. Blood of the Samurai has all the action and fun that you wouldn't expect from an indie film! A must-buy!

1.0 out of 5 stars Hard to enjoy even going in it knowing it is campy., September 5, 2009

This review is from: Blood of the Samurai (DVD)

I am a big supporter of Independent cinema, especially genre, horror and martial arts, but this movie as much as I tried to enjoy it, was painful to get through. I wanted to like it, I want to support it - but I can't. The directing is awful (the shaky camera work gave me motion sickness), the dialogue tries way too hard to be funny and clever and the acting is unmentionably horrible. I put a lot of money into indie horror to show support and to keep the films coming, but in no way would I invest in this and I feel bad saying that because it seems the filmmakers tried to make a movie that fans of this kind of cinema would enjoy. I would of liked to see how it came out if they played it straight... well, no, I am just trying to be nice now. For what this movie retails for, it ain't worth it at all. In fact I am disappointed that I wasted my money on it because the trailer for the film looked so fun and up my alley. If you really need to see this movie, rent it, borrow it or find another way then to buy it. The reviews that say it is charming and like a Belt Theatre Classic and action packed and blah, blah... I can't disagree more with the reviews on the box. I love camp, I even love some bad b-horror movies and films like Troll 2 that are so bad they are awesome, but this is so bad that it is unwatchable and unfunny.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comic book camp, March 16, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Blood of the Samurai (DVD)

I thought it was a lot of fun. If you think you might like Wayne's World meets Kurosawa on a (very?) low budget than this is a film for you. A good flick to have in the background on poker night. Caution: If you are looking for a high brow, high budget, sweeping cinematic epic then consider something else.
