Takashi Miike’s live action adaptation of Blade of the Immortal will arrive in full bloody, limb flying fashion this November! The red band trailer gives a taste of what we’ll see as Hiroaki Samura’s classic manga is brought to life and it looks quite impressive.
Official Synopsis: “Samurai Manji has taken a lot of lives, both innocent and guilty, and now lives life in feudal Japan as a criminal. After being cursed with immortality until he kills enough evil men, Manji meets a young girl who enlists him to be her body-guard. Swearing loyalty, protection and vengeance against the group of sword fighters who slaughtered her family, the unlikely duo set on a remarkable quest to make right against those who did them wrong.”
Blade of the Immortal made its premier earlier this year in Japan but will hit theaters here in the States on November 3. Let us know what you think of the trailer in the comments below!
