April 15 movie: Kill! Because of Kill Bill's imminent release, Independant Film Channel showed three samurai movies selected by Quentin Tarantino. We watched the first one, Kill! It was a little difficult to follow, at least at first, but all good fun with lots of references to other samurai movies. The fighting was extra gory, which was probably why Tarantino liked it so much. The star looked familiar, we thought he had played the man with the gun in Yojimbo. I looked it up in imdb.com and that was him, so two points for us! Not only that but he's been in tons of movies, including Ran (he played Lord Hidetora) and Kwaidan, that ghost story movie I saw a couple of months ago.
