VERSUS

This truly bonkers Japanese movie can only be descibed as a gangster zombie kung fu fantasy film. To describe any more would just confuse the issue! Imagine Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) making a gangster movie, getting bored half way through and then passing the reins to Tarantino. At times it can be confusing but it is also ridiculously gory, eye popping and innovative. The only down side is the DVD print and this applies across the board. I have the 2 disc Media Blasters version which I imported from America and has one of the better prints. No matter in the long run. The film more than compensates for this.
