Alternate Ep. Title: “Victim of the Sneaky Angry God Reach-Around!”

Bringing down the roof with this underground samurai kaiju cult classic! Often labeled as the premier Japanese art-house monster movie but that description comes across as being kind of snobbish so we’ll just say that it’s an extremely solid entry into our Asian Cinema category. A fairly simple tale that blends many of the best elements of both samurai films and giant monster movies.

Actually more of a period samurai epic than a standard monster movie. This film had considerably above-average production values. Appropriately authentic looking sets and costumes. Along with believable performances and sympathetic characters. A story that emphasizes the age-old mantra that those who continue to do evil will eventually get their comeuppance. Except in this case the punishment is doled out by a wrathful demon god who seems to have an unnatural hatred for roofs and chains. Highly recommended to all kaiju/samurai movie lovers!

The Hard Cast invites you to the annual sacred appease-an-angry-god ceremony! We promise it will be a night to remember with lots of geishas and plenty of sake bombs to go around. Just remember, don’t be wasteful because Daimajin is always watching….
