Viewing Notes
There’s so much crazy stuff packed into this Toshirô Mifune driven fantasy adventure you just kind of throw up your hands and go with it! It’s silly but entertaining fun which weaves in parts of the Sinbad story as it goes.
Not a movie I even knew about before so I was happy to catch this on DKU-TV under the title SAMURAI PIRATE.
