episode 261: Sonny Chiba Goes Horror!
We're back with more spooky thrills as we look at two horror outings starring the late, great Sonny Chiba. First we have Toei's campy Japanese/American co-production Terror from Beneath the Sea (1966) about fish people trying to take over the world. We follow that up with Kinji Fukasaku's 1981's jidaigeki fantasy/horror mashup, Samurai Reincarnation where Chiba plays famous samurai Yagyu Jubei going up against Japanese historical figures resurrected as demons. Kick back and join the conversation!
