Just started watching the Lone Wolf and Cub series of films. It's a Japanese series generally from the early 70s based on a manga I believe about a samurai executioner who is framed for a crime and ends up a victim of these clan politics. He leaves his home and starts travelling the road with his 3-year old son in search of vengeance. It also helps that he's the meanest mother****er I've seen in a movie in a long time.
I was surprised at how good the first movie, Sword of Vengeance, was. It easily had enough violence and nudity for an exploitation movie, considering it it was made in 1972, but it's so well crafted and has a lot to offer so it doesn't feel cheap. The main character, the always serious Itto, was particularly well cast and the sword fights were just incredibly well done and had a lot of realism, I thought. There are six films in total I believe. Now I'm looking forward to the second one.
