VENGEANCE IS SUCH A GREAT BUSINESS
(Sukedachiya Sukeroku)

This is the final movie from Okamoto Kihachi, the filmmaker who directed such great movies as “Sword Of Doom”, “Kill”, and “Red Lion”. With an equal mix of violence and humor he has forged a career that spanned over 4 decades and created some of the most memorable films to ever come out of Japan. This is no exception, and the hand of a master is evident in his treatment of this highly entertaining story.

In a world where vendettas are officially sanctioned, the people sometimes needed help in carrying out their vengeance. Sanada Hiroyuki stars as Sukeroku the Helper, a ‘cool and rambling yakuza’ that has made a business out of helping victims carry out their revenge. When he returns to his hometown to pay a visit to his mother’s grave he meets a deadly ronin who carries a secret which eventually leads him into a vendetta of his own. With terrific performances by Sanada and Nakadai Tatsuya as the mysterious old ronin, this film brings back the golden era of Japanese cinema!

ZATOICHI TV - GRAND FINALE

For the first time ever, the Grand Finale of the Zato Ichi story comes to DVD. These two episodes were written and directed by one of Japan's most distinguished filmmakers Teshigahara Hiroshi and elevate the Blind Swordsman from genre hero to fine art. After 25 feature films from 1962 through 1974, the television series lasted 4 years and helped keep alive the legend of the blind wandering gambler/masseur with the lightning fast sword. There were 100 episodes over the 4 seasons and while all of them are very good to excellent, this 2 part finale brings the series and the character to an exciting conclusion unlike anything that ever went before or after.

Episode 99: "The Rainbow Journey" takes Ichi to the inner chambers of a daimyo lord's concubine. A beautiful woman with a deadly secret holds the key to a treasure chest containing 1,000 gold coins. Can Ichi survive against the political activists who want to bring down the government with their bloody blades?

Episode 100: "The Dream Journey" intersperses Ichi's innermost fears and desires with the harsh realities of being a blind man who dreams only of being able to see the sun once more before he dies. With spectacular cinematography and plenty of dynamic swordplay, can Ichi conquer fear and defeat his most formidable adversary?

See Zato Ichi like never before in this stunning work of art!

THESE SLUGS STEAL OUR PRODUCT AND ATTEMPT TO TRADE OFF OF OUR GOOD NAME & REPUTATION BY DRAWING YOU, THE CONSUMER, TO THEIR BOGUS "STORES" BY USING SIMILAR SOUNDING STORE & DOMAIN NAMES TO SELL YOU CHEAP SHODDY COPIES OF WHAT YOU SEE HERE WITH LITTLE OR NO CUSTOMER SUPPORT.

QUESTION: WHY DO THESE IMPOSTER "STORES" REFUSE TO POST A SNAIL MAIL ADDRESS ON THEIR SITES?

ANSWER: BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW WHERE THEY'RE LOCATED.

QUESTION: WHY DO THEY TRY TO USE OUR GOOD NAME?

ANSWER: BECAUSE WE ARE THE BEST AT WHAT WE DO AND WE HAVE BEEN DOING IT SINCE THE DAYS OF VHS VIDEOTAPE LONG BEFORE THERE WAS A DVD FORMAT AND EVEN THE INTERNET (AS SAMURAI VIDEO) THAT YOU'RE USING TO VIEW THIS WEBSITE RIGHT NOW.

WE COULD SELL OUR TITLES FOR $10.00 AND FREE SHIPPING TOO IF WE HAD STOLEN VIRTUALLY EVERY ONE OF OUR TITLES FROM SOMEONE ELSE'S WEBSITE AS THESE SLUGS HAVE DONE. BUT WE CAN'T BECAUSE WE HAVE TO RECOUP THE EXPENSE OF TRANSLATING AND SUBTITLING THE GREAT FILMS YOU SEE HERE ON OUR WEBSITE.

TRUE FANS OF THE GENRE SUPPORT THOSE OF US THAT ACTUALLY TRANSLATE & PRODUCE THE SUBTITLED SAMURAI MOVIES THEY SEE HERE INSTEAD OF THE RIP-OFF ARTISTS THAT STEAL THEM FROM US AND OTHERS AND THEN ACCUSE THE FOLKS WHO ACTUALLY SUBTITLED AND WERE THE INITIAL SELLERS OF ALL OF THE THEIR STOLEN TITLES OF RIPPING THEM OFF.

CHECK OUT SAMURAI FILM FAN FORUMS AND FIND OUT WHO ACTUALLY TRANSLATES AND SUBTITLES THE FILMS YOU LOVE AND FOR THE SAKE OF THE GENRE... DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THE RIP-OFF WEBSITES NAMED ABOVE AND PATRONIZE THOSE SITES THAT ACTUALLY PRODUCE WHAT THEY SELL.

REAL STORES DON'T USE PAYPAL EXCLUSIVELY TO PROCESS CREDIT CARDS (THAT USUALLY MEANS THEY ARE UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO OPEN A COMMERCIAL BANK ACCOUNT & CREDIT CARD GATEWAY), OR HOST THEIR STORES AT THE E-BAY SCAVENGER SITE VENDIO.COM AND REAL STORES STAND BEHIND WHAT THEY SELL 100% LIKE WE DO.

REMEMBER, YOU ONLY GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

THEY WOULDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SELL!

That's why we want to to say a heartfelt "Thank You" to our loyal customers and hopefully educate the new Samurai Movie fans about getting the most value for their hard earned money instead of throwing it away on the garbage these rip-off artists sell.
