[Closed] PSA: 13 assassins Film4 9pm

Arigato.

Ermmm... de nada! 😆

loving it , but man its brutal - with out the 'mountain man's' levity it would be too brutal.

Aye possibly the mountain man is a curiosity still never have figured out the last bit! Which I'll no spoil yet!

phew he's immortal 🙂
Great film.

Aye that's the bit. What was that all about? Was he actually real or some kind of spirit or something? Still confused!

I'm going with 'Pan'/demon/ wood spirit - they all saw him - and he likes wrestling bears.

But who's Upashi?

Upashi was mountain mans boss's missus that mm was trying it on with, why he was in the trap at the beginning.

- yeah I got that bit - but I don't believe he's a mortal man - so is he really chasing a mortal woman?

No Country for Old Men is now on!

That was an awesome film. If you enjoyed it then check out the Lone Wolf and Cub movies.

- there's only so much blood shed I can take -
Beside "Hard Target" is on ITV4 😉

- quick google fu - seems quite a bit cut out of the international release -
'64:34
During the night begore the battle, Koyata sits on a scaffold and says "Upashi" which is the name of his wife. Then follows a short flashback where you see her at the river. Then we see Koyata on the scaffold again. The international version does not show the first shot of Koyata and instead immediately shows Upashi. Koyata's mentioning of her name was postponed to the scene of her at the river. The cut itself seems to be a little odd. Upashi apparently eats her own fetus at the riverbank, a method which in Japanese mythology hints at the fact that she might be a demon; thus, they could probably have cut this scene out along with all the other supernatural scenes. Apparently, they wanted to keep the fact that Koyata is married in the movie; the producers probably hoped that not too many people might know what the scene is supposed to mean.
10.5s ' - there's more 'demon' cut scenes - must try and get the Japanese release.
