Set sometime in feudal Japan when real ninjas actually existed, this black and white film from Japan is a good primer for anyone interested in a bit of history regarding ninjas. Certainly more stealth oriented than Franco Nero in white jammies and more realistic, the portrayal of a ninjas role in society is made clear and you’ll find no sensationalism here.
