Description

In the Edo period of old Japan, powerful feudal lords battle for supremacy. But now, evil has a new advocate, the Yui Shosetsu. Yui seeks control of the entire world, and plans to enlist seven resurrected samurai warriors by sacrificing seven virgins. Their path to conquest, however, is blocked by one valiant warrior, Jubei Yagyu.

Customer Reviews:

Do not be misled.......2005-01-16

Do not be misled from the other reviews , the Jubei from this movie has nothing to do with jubei kibagami from ninja scroll.
"reborn from hell" focuses on Jubei Yagyu. they are completly different characters. Also, there is an anime based on the "Reborn from Hell" series, which I advise to all to not waste your time. The animation is horrible and the voice acting is not much better.

funny stuff.......2004-07-06

it's a hilarious movie. you have to have the right mindset when you watch this movie. it's a cross between a ninja movie and an unconventional porno.

Samurai spoof.......2003-02-26

Despite the fact that most people tend to think this movie is really terrible, I am forced to disagree. This movie is a giant spoof. Every character in the movie is a legitimate, historical (though hardly accurate) individual. If you research them, you can find accounts of most of their lives with minimal difficulty. The actual scenes are outright parodies of dramatic scenes from other samurai and Japanese horror movies; most notable is the final battle between Musashi and Jubei (the protagonist) on the beach. Don't take this movie seriously and you'll enjoy it.

This is the follow up to the Ninja resurrection!.......2002-11-25

I think that this movie is like an anime movie: blood, sex and inexplicable things, the sword play are pretty good although I didn't like special effects, the performance of Jubei is excellent and I could say that it is the best along the movie.

Some of the best Samurai Action this Side of Lone Wolf & Cub.......2001-08-03

I wholeheartedly DIS-agree on Samurai Armageddon...I dug the movie; the acting is hokey as can be, but you gotta remember, EVERY Kung Fu/Ninja/Samurai movie that contains ANY "mystical" elements is gonna be hokey: Ninja Wars, Kung Fu Zombies, Super Ninjas, Spiritual Kung Fu, Nine Demons (The Venoms-Shaw Brothers), practically anything with Sho Kasugi as the main star....I have every movie listed (except the Sho Kasugi stuff) and love them all... They're all hokey, but have some awesome martial action... In fact, Jubei performs some of the best kendo moves this side of Itto Oogami (Lone Wolf)... Plus, the fact that it's part of the Jubei Yagyu (also in Samurai Shodown) saga is most cool... The plot for Samurai Armageddon is the same plot used for Ninja Resurrection Vol.2 [anime] (the Jubei Yagyu from Ninja Scroll [anime] in another dimension) . . .
