It's also a series of japanese saber films (and that's where I picked
the name from):
* Kozure Ôkami: Sanzu no kawa no ubaguruma (1972)
Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart at the River Styx

* Kozure Ôkami: Shinikazeni mukau ubaguruma (1972)
Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart to Hades
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068817/
* Kozure Ôkami: Meifumando (1973)
Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart in Land of Demons
