“Give me a year of your life for freeing you. I’ll put your skills to good use.” Well Go USA has revealed an official US trailer for a Japanese action thriller called Samurai Fury, which is just the simplistic English title. The film’s original title in Japan is Muromachi Outsiders or 室町無頼 (Muromachi Burai) because of the story: this historical action epic follows Hasuda Hyoe, a man who led an uprising in the Muromachi period. In Kyoto, Hyoe gathers a group of outlaws as he plans an unprecedented riot against authorities. As famine and plague ravage 15th century Japan, the laconic shogun watches and does nothing. The rebellious wanderer Hasuda Hyoe has seen enough and plots to depose the shogun and save Japan from self-imposed devastation. Starring Ôizumi Yô as the heroic Hyoe, the story pits him against one-time friend Honekawa Doken, the iconic Shin’ichi Tsutsumi in a fight for survival. Also with Nagao Kento and Matsumoto Wakana. Looks like a full-on epic with massive fight scenes and tons of extras. I just hope the rest is good.

Here’s the official US trailer (+ poster) for Yû Irie’s action film Samurai Fury, direct from YouTube:

As famine and plague ravage 15th century Japan, the laconic shogun watches and does nothing to support his countrymen.
