Mito Komon - The Bloody Swords

Mito Komon - The Bloody Swords

1935 · 74 min

Final installment of the Okochi / Arai / Yamanaka Mito Komon series and just as good as the others (a good deal longer, as well). Again, this film like the other two is similar in tone and spirit to the Yamanaka Tange Sazen film and would appeal to fans of that film.

Directed by Ryohei Arai · Written by Sadao Yamanaka
