Editorial Review: Description: Deep within the mysterious Forest of Resurrection, a spectacular battle between good and evil has gone on since the dawn of time. When Prisoner KSC2-303 escapes from a maximum security facility, he enters the forest, believing it will lead him to safe haven. Instead, he finds himself a pawn in an endless struggle played out across multiple temporal planes of existence. His opponent: a mysterious man who seemingly cannot be killed. The battle to be waged: Good versus Evil in the pursuit of a beautiful woman who holds the key to eternal life. What Prisoner KSC2-303 cannot remember is whether or not he is the personification of good or the very essence of darkness Average Rating:
 Rating:  - a little Ichi the Killer and a little Izo, with a dash of cheesewhoa, what a fun movie, for fans of Takashi Miike's stuff, or over the top Asian cinema in general should check this one out. essentially it follows an escaped convict trying to initially cut a deal with the mob to aid his escape, but when things go wrong and people start getting shot, things get weird. the first dead body stands back up, only to be filled with about 50 bullets before falling back to the ground. the chaos begins when our main character, a feminist, was introduced to ...

It's like Kitamura, the director, poked around inside my brain for my two favorite cult/indie/action/gore faves and put them together. Because this film could not be a more perfect combination of Six String Samurai meets Evil Dead 2, with a bunch of martial arts action thrown in. I absolutely love these types of films. This is not one of those "universally" fantastic films that anyone can appreciate. This is most certainly ... Read More Rating: - This review is for the "ULTIMATE" version of Versus (THE superior version)So many Versus reviews and none talking about the "Ultimate" version. I will make the synopsis short if you want a longer one read one of the other numerous ones here. Prisoner escapes meets up with some Yakuzas, they have a girl hostage which the prisoner seems to know and does not like the fact she is being held captive. The guns start firing and the prisoners escape. This starts the film and the chase through the forest for the escapees. Along the way of course guns, zombies, swords, and kung ... Read More Rating:  - Gore Galore and that's itThis is a movie you completely turn your brain off to. I will admit, I found it so cheesy and ridiculous that I stopped watching it and put it on again later. It was hard for me to watch this movie. So on my second watch I just it took for what it is. A mindless gorefest. I'll give credit where it's due. If action, very cheesy dialogue, and characters is your thing. Pick this up immediately. It does deliver with the martial arts and gore. But I honestly can never watch this again. Rating: - Cheez wiz tastes great BAD VERSUS GOOD PLOT--interesting, underdeveloped, hard to follow ACTING--overdone, comical, unconvincing MUSIC--irritating, questionable FUN--exciting, humorous ACTION--violent, fast-paced, entertaining GORE--blood, guts, decapitations Overall, this is a very cool and different independent flick. Filled with tons of testosterone. Not to mention gobs of dismemberment, zombies, and absurd bloody slayings. Thanks M & D... Browse for similar items by category:
