Lady Snowblood and Lady Snowblood: Love Song of Vengeance double feature. LADY SNOWBLOOD - Her father, a schoolteacher, is brutally murdered. Her mother is beaten, raped, and forced into prostitution to survive, only to die giving her life. From her dying mother's lips comes her only reason for living... Bloody revenge! Trained in the arts of death by the priest who adopts her, Yuki sets out to find the four villains who destroyed her family. But when the secret of her bloody mission is uncovered by a well-meaning journalist, the tables are turned and evil finds the one weapon that can pierce the heart of the woman known to all of Japan as: Lady Snowblood! LADY SNOWBLOOD: LOVE SONG OF VENGEANCE - Imprisoned and sentenced to hang for the murders she committed to avenge her family, Yuki is given a reprieve by the mysterious Kikui, a secret government agent. In return for her life, Yuki must infiltrate the household of Ransui, an anarchist and activist, assassinate him, and recover an important document. But all is not as it seems. The document in question contains evidence of a foul miscarriage of justice engineered by Kikui and his patron for political and personal gain. When Yuki decides to switch and help Ransui, Kikui unleashes every weapon at his disposal to eliminate them, recover the document, and protect his secret. Once again, the deadly blade of Lady Snowblood must stain itself with blood... but this time it's not for revenge, it's for JUSTICE.

Lady Snowblood (Collector's Boxed Set) Review

I'll be honest, I rented this film strictly because I love Kill Bill and I was curious to see where Tarantino culled his imagery and ideas. I'm very glad I did, and it's why I think Kill Bill is a very important bridge between modern cinema and cult and foreign film that, lets face it, most of us miss out on. This film is a very beautiful and poetic look at revenge and love. The title character, Yuki, is born into and raised with a single ideology, vengeance. She knows no love, except for that of her deceased parents and brother, nor hate, except for her enemies who killed her father and brother and tortured her mother. The film follows Yuki on her journey to find and enact her vengeance on these four villains. Though the plot is fairly simple, it's well crafted and manages to sidestep what could be easy static characterization for very well drawn character arcs. The action and swordplay are beautiful and wonderfully over the top, as are the settings, story devices (like the use of paintings and manga to depict flashback and plot explanation), and special FX (lots of arterial blood sprays.) For fans of Kill Bill, this film is the basis for the O-Ren Ishii character. Other references are similar settings (the fight at the end of the House of Blue Leaves sequence), numbered chapters, music, the afore mentioned arterial blood sprays, very similar character development, freeze frames with character identification, a very similar rouges gallery upward camera shot, and a mixture of live action and animation/manga.
