For our Six Degrees of Kill Bill series, we'll be talking about a wide array of movies that Quentin Tarantino has referenced or cited as an influence on his 2004 film, but no film may be as influential on KILL BILL as Toshiya Fujita's Japanese revenge classic LADY SNOWBLOOD.

In this episode, we'll discuss the film's origin as a popular manga, and how the unlikely hiring of Fujita and screenwriter Kazuo Koike came to be. We also go down a rabbit hole regarding the Meiji era of Japanese history and how this historical context informs not only the manga, but the film itself. (I know that sounds boring as shit, but trust us, it's actually super cool.)

Theme Song: "There's Still a Little Bit of Time, If We Hurry and I Mean Hurry" by Slasher Film Festival Strategy.

This episode was written, produced and edited by Gary Horne, Justin Bishop, & Todd Davis.
