Recently, I saw "Throne of Blood" (1957), a great film by Akira Kurosawa.
Subtitled, of course. Its a remake of "Macbeth". It is also called "Cobweb
Castle" and "Spider Web Castle", or by its Japanese title, "Kumonosu jo".
This movie is in black and white, so you won't see any color ideas. But
what you will see is detailed closeups of well-equipped samurai warriors.
You might also be inspired by the settings (including castles) and the
incredible story.
Good luck finding that one at Blockbuster!!!! I suggest an independent
video store.
