Viewing Notes

Movie 2

hint:
2. Kind of like The Wraith but made about 50 years earlier as a supernatural chanbara

Almost guessed this title but went with another movie from the same year that features a reincarnated samurai called The Corpse’s Revenge.

This one is pretty good. Need to get the file for my own collection.
