Enoken's Kurama Tengu
0 votes
The legendary ninja Kurama Tengu (Enoken) uses his superhuman powers to help free a band of street urchins from their Fagin-like master. The film's incredible climax, when Enoken fends off dozens of men attacking with ladders and handcarts, brings to mind a slightly less dextrous Jackie Chan.
