Kinji Fukasaku’s Samurai Reincarnation Getting Masters Of Cinema Treatment

Eureka Entertainment know how to spoil fans of classic re-issues and that streak will continue in June with the UK release of Samurai Reincarnation.

A spectacular chanbara fantasy epic from Kinji Fukasaku, Samurai Reincarnation  makes its UK debut from a stunning 2K restoration as part of the Masters of Cinema series. A story of ninjas, magic swordsman, evil assassins, and forbidden love, from the director of Battle Royale.

In the aftermath of a failed rebellion, Amakusa Shiro (Kenji Sawada) is crucified, but returns as a vengeance-filled demon with the power to resurrect the dead. Shiro uses his power to assemble a team of undead warriors—including legendary swordsman Miyamoto Musashi (Ken Ogata)—and the only one who can stop them is the wandering samurai, Yagyu Jubei (Sonny Chiba).

Eureka Entertainment has created a new Trailer to promote the release, enjoy…
