How Many Of These Movies Can You Watch?

"I pose that question seriously. There are so many of these films available, and what's worse is that most fall into the catagory of "Here's more of the same" that they almost give revenge flix a bad name. There's a tsunami of them to drown in, and this series brings nothing new to the table, though I've only seen two of the three. Adequate, maybe, horrible, no, but run out to add to a collection? Hardly. Once watched, there's precious little left to offer in repeated viewings. Stick with the top shelf of these films from that era - 'Blind Woman's Curse', 'Lady Snowblood' 1 and 2, and 'Bohachi Bushido; Code Of The Forgotten Eight'. And more recently, the excellent 'Azumi' for true kickass enjoyment. I'd rather sit through Quick Draw McGraw before Quick Draw Okatsu..."

"Second in series entry has great/fun with second banana teen slasher providing support for our lead's (perpetual) revenge. As Chris D points out in the commentary (always very low key but welcomed and insightful) these Legends films are stock plots made viable by fairly astute directing. This color offering, "Quick Draw," is a good place to start. It has all the cliches of the genre, yet it's still very watchable."
