So for the past month I've been revisiting and making a video on every Lone Wolf and cub film in the series. This is no doubt One of the most influential franchises in film history. Based on a successful manga of the same name, and a key reference for The Mandalorian, the Lone Wolf and Cub movies feature disgraced-samurai-turned-assassin Ogami Ittō (Tomisaburo Wakayama) and his young son Daigoro (Akihiro Tomikawa) as they travel through Edo period Japan, acquiring targets and being targeted by various rival factions - most notably the Yagyū clan, led by Lord Retsudo. Six movies were made between 1972 and 1974, before a TV adaptation soured Wakayama’s perception of the franchise, causing him to walk away. As such, the story arc remains incomplete - leaving the series in a state of purgatory, befitting its nihilistic protagonist and his never-ending quest to follow the “Demon Way to Hell”.
