Zatoichi!

[yendi]

Ain't-it-bad-Webdesign is reporting that there's a new series of Zatoichi movies being made! I'm linking to the Chud story, though, as their page is more readable. Anyone not familiar with The Blind Swordsman has missed some of the most influential (and niftiest) Japanese movies of the last fifty years. The movies get shown on IFC on the weekends, for those who want to educate themselves. :-)
