Both within Kill Bill and outside Kill Bill what are QT’s favourite samurai and yakuza films? Films aside from ones I’m allready aware of like Ladysnowblood and the Lone Wolf and Cub series. Anyone know? Can anyone help?
M.D.B.
black lizard
sanjuro and other kurosawa films, (yojimbo, ran, seven samurai…)
zatoichi films
the hanzo films (hanzo the razor)
miike films (ichi, dead or alive…
there are plenty more, id say Takeshi Kitano as well and other Fukasaku films
anyone ever see AMERICAN YAKUZA…its a pretty good B movie
I have seen nr 1 & nr 2
The line between the two can sometimes be blurry, depending on what you consider the criteria to be :-</E>

not really, samurai films, also known as chambara cover films from the samurai period, edo period, etc, Yakuza films are modern day films about Japanese crime, samurai films that contain yakuza, i consider to still be chambara (which really dont mean samurai films, but more accurately period films)
What about films like ghost dog? No thats a stupid question i just wanted to know the criteria
