“One can pinpoint the exact moment when 13 Assassins transforms from vivid samurai drama to insane work of genius.” - Chris Vognar, Dallas Morning News
Cult director Takashi Miike (ICHI THE KILLER; AUDITION) delivers a bravado period action film set at the end of Japan’s feudal era, in which a group of unemployed samurai are enlisted to bring down a sadistic lord and prevent him from ascending to the throne and plunging the country into a war-torn future.
