From Japan, an incredible cult film, a mix of samurai and science fiction, starring Sonny Chiba
AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 4K UHD AND BLU-RAY
A unit of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces finds itself mysteriously transported four hundred years into the past. Equipped with an armored vehicle, a jeep, and a helicopter, Second Lieutenant Iba and his men are drawn into the internal wars that are tearing apart 16th-century Japan. They are soon torn between the desire to return to the country they know and the desire to change the course of history ...
A spectacular confrontation between past and present, Kosei Saito's Ninja Wars brings together the best of samurai films and Japanese action cinema, notably during epic clashes between soldiers and warriors of feudal Japan. In front of and behind the camera – he is in charge of directing the fight scenes –, star Sonny Chiba ( The Street Fighter , Kill Bill: Volume 1 ) steals the show in this role of an officer gradually overcome by a destructive madness. Ninja Wars is available in its complete edit and in its previously unreleased restored version on Blu-ray™ and 4K Ultra HD™ (presented in Dolby Vision™ [HDR10 compatible] and Dolby Atmos™).
