The Betrayal
Starring : Ichikawa Raizo
Directed by: Tanaka Tokuzo
This film is one of the real hidden classics of the Samurai genre. Virtually unknown outside of Japan, this tale of betrayal and revenge features one of the greatest swordfights in motion picture history.
It rivals SWORD OF DOOM in its intensity and duration. Ichikawa Raizo’s fighting in this film is far and away the best of his career.
Betrayed by the elders of his clan, and blamed for a murder he did not commit, his unrelenting fury against those who falsely accused him comes to one of the most exciting conclusions ever filmed!
1966 Black/White Widescreen
Japanese with English subtitles.
