Bruce Campbell Goes Samurai

Brand new domestic cult film distributor Shinobi Splat! Entertainment has announced its first DVD/BD release, the 1987 low budget samurai action movie Ambush at Blood Trail Gate. Shinobi Splat! founder Jeff Stephens was able to obtain a print of the “lost” film from director Naohiro Takita, but while the music and effects tracks were recoverable, the original Japanese language dialogue was lost. So Shinobi Splat will release the film domestically with an original English dialogue track starring cult film icon Bruce Campbell.

The DVD will include remastered video, a Q & A with director Naohiro Takita and voice actor Bruce Campbell, and a documentary on the restoration of the film. The movie will go on sale October 13th at $24.95 MSRP for the DVD and $29.95 for Blu-ray.

Shinobi Splat! plans 8-10 specialty releases per year.

Amusing, if this is real. The Shinobi Splat website has no mention of this project, nor does Bruce Campbell’s official site. However, Bruce Campbell does lend his voice in the White on Rice movie that the Shinobi Splat website promotes.
