In the third and final film of the Maijin series, the fathers of some of the local children have been captured by an evil warlord and forced to work in their labor camps. When four sons decide to go out and save their fathers, they have to cross Daimajin Mountain, where the stone god lays sleeping, a notoriously dangerous area full of treacherous terrain, evil samurai, and the angry Daimajin. The four boys pay their respects to the statue when they pass it so that they do not incur the monster’s wrath. Eventually, the warlord’s men anger the statue (Riki Hashimoto), who once again comes to life and destroys all those who have not been paying respect to him. The children and their fathers are spared while the work camp is destroyed. Stars Hideki Ninomiya, Shinji Hori and Masahide Iizuka.
