Be a Man! Samurai School

Saturday, June 27 - Monday, June 29, 2009

With director Tak Sakaguchi and top stuntman Isao Karasawa in attendance! Tak Sakaguchi is Japan’s action man, doing the choreography and stunts in flicks like VERSUS and GODZILLA FINAL WARS. His directorial debut is the ridiculously macho story of Otoko-juku University where young boys become butt-kicking men…or die trying. Stuffed with wall-to-wall action and full of sulphuric acid baths this flick comes out swinging and never stops. And you learn the best way to build your Man Spirit before a fight: run down to the river and jump kick a bear in the face!
