| Website Product Page | The Secret of the Urn |
| Product Info | After losing both an eye and an arm to treachery while on a mission for his clan, Samanosuke (Kinnosuke NAKAMURA) becomes a ronin who calls himself TANGE Sazen. When a stolen urn that contains the secret to a treasure worth a million gold coins falls into his one remaining hand, all sorts of villains, including a high-ranking Shogunate minister, plot to relieve him of his burden — and his life. Unfortunately for them, TANGE has developed a unique and deadly one-handed fighting style, which means his enemies will have their hands full — at least while they still have their heads! TANGE Sazen is one of Japan’s most popular samurai characters, the equivalent of Zorro or The Lone Ranger in the west. |

"Excellent, fast moving action film..." -- brns.com "Kinnosuke Nakamura is masterful in the role of Tange, and the secondary cast of characters is great..." -- Anime Radius "...the character of Tange Sazen sits somewhere between Toshiro Mifune's Sanjuro and Zatoichi..." -- Coffee, Coffee "The entire film is laced with kinetic energy and a good-natured disrespect of authority" -- Shogun-ki "If you're looking for a simple and fun samurai classic, this film might just win you over" -- PopZara "...a bloody fun film..." -- SoReelFlix
