For those waiting on a red band trailer for Takeshi Miike's live-action adaptation of Hiroaki Samura's manga, Blade of The Immortal, we've got you covered... in claret!
This is the 100th movie from Miike who has previously brought us the likes of Visitor Q and Ichi the Killer, and although this seems to be a lot less bizarre that either of those bloodbaths, it looks no less gruesome.
Check out the trailer below along with a synopsis, and let us know what you think.
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 will have its North American premiere at Fantastic Fest next month, ahead of its limited theatrical release on Nov. 3.
