Transposing the action to sixteenth century Japan, Throne of Blood is Akira Kurosawa's remarkable re-telling of Shakespeare's Macbeth.
A new 4K restoration of Akira Kurosawa’s astonishing film that’s considered to be one of the great adaptations of Shakespeare’s Macbeth.
A truly remarkable film, Throne of Blood manages to combine beauty and terror to produce a mood of truly haunting power. Starring the irrepressible Toshiro Mifune as the doomed warlord Washizu and a wonderfully creepy turn by Isuzu Yamada as the Lady Macbeth-inspired Asaji, the film shows Kurosawa's familiar mastery of atmosphere and action combined with the savagery of war.
- Restored 4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible)
