About The Law of Hell
During the Tokugawa Shogunate, a band of smugglers use a tavern on an isolated island in Edo's Fukagawa district as their base of operations. After the unexpected arrival of an injured man with a troubled past, the men find themselves in a life-or-death situation.
Directed by Akira Inoue, The Law of Hell leans on a strong ensemble — Tatsuya Nakadai, Daisuke Ryū, Hideo Murota — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1982.
