Chanbara Beauty

Its now the holidays, so time to do more DVD reviews. Yesterday I bought a DVD called "Chanbara Beauty". The storyline involves zombies, katana and girl in Bikini. What else do you need?

Its a Japanese movie. Japan has been plagued by zombies. Contrary to Romero's zombie which is slow moving, these Japanese zombies knows martial arts. One even wields a flail.

Its based on a PS2 game called Oneechanbara (お姉チャンバラ), literally translating as "the big sister swordsman". Hmm.

The kung fu zombie. By right since its Japanese, I should say erm, what the martial art famous in Japan? Aikido zombie? Judo zombie? I don't know

Aya, the sword wielding zombie killer.

You don't see that every day ok. Beats the Sailormoon entrance.

"Zombie killing aura" from her katana.

When the fighting gets tough, she transform into..tada. Note to self:-If I was walking in zombie wasteland and got saved by a sword wielding, bikini wearing girl, remember to ask "Where can I get one of those?". I am talking about the sword not the bikini :P

Assisted by a biker using a Vincent Valentine's gun. Its a double barrel shotgun that shoots 2000 rounds :P. Actually Vincent Valentine's weapon is a triple barreled revolver called Cerberus.

Another character, you are traveling in a zombie wasteland and you just carry one small knife. If I were him I would get a crowbar or a baseball bat and put nine inch nails on the baseball bat to make a morning star. sheesh. This guy never read the zombie survival plan book.

A side promotion, there is a book on how to survive zombie attack. (No kidding folks)

ISBN 1400049628

Back to the movie :P

Increasing her aura. I think its like leveling up hmmm.

Aura increased.

Hiten Mitsurugi-Style. Oh, sorry, that's Himura Kenshin (Samurai X)

Grave of the fallen ....

Now she got 2 katanas..

Want to know the whole story? Get the dvd yourself wahahaha.

The last comment was not ME, just in case if you wonder.

Again, what unholy rule of the anime universe dictates that female fighters must fight in tight-fitting, revealing outfits? What about protection against zombie bites? Shouldn't she be wearing something more "bite-proof"? Weird... =.=||
