Terrible Delights #30: Shogun Assassin

This week's pick is the very bloody 1980 samurai flick Shogun Assassin. Re-edited from the first two Lone Wolf and Cub movies originally released in 1972, when the wife of the Shogun's Decapitator is murdered and he is ordered to commit suicide by the paranoid Shogun, he and his four-year-old son escape and become assassins for hire, embarking on a journey of blood and violent death. Very awesome violent death. And a synth soundtrack!
