CHAMBARA SAMURAI POSTER
Chambara
Samurai Poster Tee What if Kurosawa remade
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly?
Imaginary Yojimbo "Trilogy" $20 + SH&H
Chambara Poster チャンバラ
– Toshiro Mifune, Shintaru Katsu and Tetsuya Nakadai –
The greatest samurai movie actors of all time team up on this Shelf Life-designed poster tee! Since Sergio Leone lifted the plot of Akira Kurosawa's classic YOJIMBO to make his groundbreaking spaghetti western – A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS – we thought it would be cool to create a poster for an imaginary Kurosawa remake of Leone's masterpiece, THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY. This original Shelf Life Clothing design is inspired by vintage samurai and spaghetti western movie posters, and imagines an all-star epic featuring Toshiro Mifune's "Sanjuro" character (The Good) crossing swords with "Zatoichi" himself, Shintaro Katsu (The Ugly), and Tatsuya Nakadai in "Sword of Doom" mode (The Bad).
