BLU-RAY DEBUT The latest obscurity to be plucked from the archives of Japanese studio Daiei by Arrow Video is this trio of period tales. Inspired by the Golem legend, each sees peasants struggling under the yoke of a wicked lord, until an angry mountain god –a majin – awakes, in the form of a towering living statue, to dispense stompy justice.
