Additional InformationThe LONE WOLF AND CUB series chronicles the adventures of disgraced Shogun assassin Ogami Itto and his infant son Daigoro, who sell their services to people in need while traveling the countryside in search of revenge against the hit squad who killed Itto's wife. All six parts of the martial arts-based drama are included here.<BR> <BR><BR>In the first film of the series, SWORD OF VENGEANCE, Ogami escapes with his son in a wooden baby cart after an assassination attempt on his family. The second film, BABY CART AT THE RIVER STYX, sees Ogami stalked by a deadly female ninja as he attempts to assassinate a spy from the Shogunate. The journey continues in BABY CART TO HADES, with Ogami coming to the aid of a prostitute who killed her pimp. But he has to undergo torture to win back her freedom. In the follow-up, BABY CART IN PERIL, Ogami must battle a female martial arts master and defend his son from an assassination attempt by an enemy clan. The fifth film in the saga, BABY CART IN THE LAND OF DEMONS, features a duel between Ogami and five warriors who hold not only his assassin's fee, but vital information he needs to hunt down his enemies. Then, in the sixth and final installment in the LONE WOLF series, titled WHITE HEAVEN IN HELL, Ogami faces his ultimate challenge when all remaining members of the enemy Retsudo clan band together for a face-off on a snowy battlefield.<BR><BR><BR>The first two films SWORD OF VENGEANCE and BABY CART AT THE RIVER STYX were re-edited into one film, SHOGAN ASSASSIN, for the American market. This version went on to create both a critical buzz and a moral hysteria upon its release in 1980, which only cemented its place in cinema history. This landmark film version is also included in the complete LONE WOLF AND CUB collection.

  • Classic

    I got really hooked on this story line through translated comics which I absolutely loved. I would say the lead actor would have been my first choice because I expected him to be leaner but I really enjoyed the movie version of this ‘Fugitive’ style road-movie. The series does it more justice than the edited movie version but watch it for your self and enjoy!
