REview – The Blind Swordsman's Vengeance

Our sightless hero Master Zatoichi is once again up to his old tricks, drawn against his will into defending helpless villagers from yakuza gangsters. This is your typical mix of swordplay, philosophical musings and other genre clichés. Nearly the only novel twist this time around is the bad guys’ attempt to flummox the protagonist by attacking him while playing extra-loud thunder drums so he won’t be able to hear them coming for him. Of course it doesn’t work, but it’s the thought that counts. Mildly amusing
