Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for horror fans, fantasy fans and adventure fans.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Moves along nicely, at 1 hr 27 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated PG: scary moments. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1966: an older pace and style.

In a mountainous region of Japan, Lord Arakawa kidnaps the men of nearby villages to use as slave labor, producing gunpowder from his sulfur pits. A band of young boys decide to rescue their enslaved fathers on their own.
