The first entry in the classic BOUNTY HUNTER trilogy, KILLER’S MISSION is a vintage Japanese pulp drama replete with Shogunate politics and ferocious sword fights. Tomisaburo Wakayama (LONE WOLF AND CUB) stars as Ichibei, a man of many talents under orders from the shogun to sabotage an arms deal between the Dutch and a band of rebels. With its charismatic lead performance and gritty genre bite, KILLER’S MISSION is a fine offering of classic Japanese genre cinema and a thrilling opening to a beloved saga.
