Kurama Tengu
1938 · 52 mins
This is Kanjûrô Arashi's first film with Nikkatsu after his independent production company went bankrupt (many of these independent companies went bankrupt shortly after the transition to sound). As he is mostly famous for his portrait of Kurama tengu (and on the other hand, he's the definitive actor for Kurama Tengu as well), Nikkatsu made another version of Kurama tengu, co-directed by Masahiro Makino & Sadatsugu Matsuda who are both sons of Shozo Makino. Scripted by Yoshitake Hisa, a jidaigeki specialist who later scripted several Toei All-Star Jidaigeki.
Directors: Sadatsugu Matsuda, Masahiro Makino
Cast: Kanjūrō Arashi, Goro Abe, Kunitaro Bando, Tokumaro Dan, Ryōsuke Kagawa
