Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart in Peril (1972)

Forth film in the Lone Wolf and Cub series. Ogami is hired to kill a tattooed female assassin. Gunbei Yagyu, an enemy samurai, happens upon Ogami’s son, and sees his chance for revenge.

The fourth entry to the brilliant “Kozure Ôkami” (“Lone Wolf And Cub”) cycle, this “Kozure Ôkami: Oya no kokoro ko no kokoro” aka “Baby Cart In Peril” is yet another ingenious masterpiece about the the ‘Lone Wolf’ Ogami Itto and his only son Daigoro. This is the first of the Ôkami films that was not directed by genius director Kenji Misumi, who directed the first three, and the fifth entry to this greatest samurai-cycle in motion picture history. Little-known director Buichi Saito, however, did an astonishing job with “Baby Cart In Peril”, a blood-soaked, stylish and astonishing film of unique atmosphere and elegance. The Lone Wolf and Cub cycle should be seen in the right order, and yet every one of the movies has its very own particular charm and genuine brilliancy.
