In this remake of a 1963 film based on historical events, Shinzaemon Shimada leads a team of assassins in 19th-century Japan to eliminate the ruthless Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira, who is wreaking havoc against his own people. Hired secretly by a government official hoping to end Matsudaira's reign of terror, Shimada recruits the best samurai in Japan and then sets a trap for the lord's large contingent of faithful bodyguards.
In this episode everyone comes together to discuss the masterfully crafted film "13 Assassins" by Takashi Miike. A wonderful film with familiar plot elements and one hell of an ending battle scene. From the costumes, the dialect and the character archetypes exhibited in this film, it's very clear to see how defining of a film this is for the "Samurai" genre. So come, sit with us and lets gush over some honorable deaths, mutual hatred for the villain and a strange and mysterious 13th man who joins in the fun.
