The daily routine of a badass.
There was a time when Sonny Chiba was the kicking ass master, breaking skulls, or any other parts of the human body for the sack of martial arts. At least, it’s the case with The Killing Machine.
A film in which he played the founder of the Shorinji Kempo school, a good-hearted man (!), who decided to protect weak people during the aftermath of WW2.
Directed by Norifumi Suzuki (School of the Holy Beast), it’s a nice piece of violent & fun entertainment to watch!
As you’ve seen the french title is “Shaolin Karate”, an attempt to define what is Shorinji Kempo). Alos, if you want your computer to feel more “Chiba,” check The Killing Machine wallpaper!
AKA 少林寺拳法, Shorinji Kempo
