Presented on 35mm! 45th Anniversary!When he was little, his father was famous.
45 years later—Ogami Itto and his son Daigoro still remain the greatest team in the history of mass slaughter.
Edited and compiled from the first two films in the LONE WOLF AND CUB series—based on the celebrated manga by Kazuo Koike and Goseki Kojima—SHOGUN ASSASSIN follows 4 year old Daigoro and his father Ogami on their “demon path to hell” after a mad Shogun murders Ogami’s wife and orders him to commit seppuku. With nothing but a rickety baby cart (full of hidden weapons), the toddler and ronin become assassins-for-hire, embarking on a journey of gory retribution. Set to a pulsating synthesizer soundtrack (cowritten by Mark Lindsay of Paul Revere & the Raiders)—Daigoro and Ogami must fend off a nearly endless wave of ruthless ninja assassins until their final showdown with the evil Shogun.
