“Often compared to Sam Peckinpah, Gosha’s briskly paced katana operas are frequently drenched with sweat and assorted other bodily fluids. But Gosha is not interested in violence for its own sake, but as an inevitable consequence of his competently constructed and efficiently executed scenarios. If Kurosawa is the Stanley Kubrick of the Samurai genre, then Gosha is its Alan Parker.”
