Trivia:

Was originally a nine hour mini-series entitled "Hanta Yo" (The title of the book the movie was based on) to be aired in 1980, instead aired in 1984 as a five hour mini series re-named "The Mystic Warrior".

I thought this was good!

I wanted to watch this for Branscombe and I was pleased by

Robert Beltran's role also as well as Rion Hunter. Good storyline...some of the effects were a little hokey but I liked the details.
