OneChanbara Reviewed… Sorta

Watched so you don’t have to! The New York Asian Film Festival recently kicked off, showing lots and lots of, you guessed it, Asian films. Included in that pan-Pacific cinematic buffet was OneChanbara — a film we actually want to see. That Girl from the cleverly named That Girl’s Site saw the flick, blogging:

I went to go check out Chanbara Beauty on Friday but unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I had a little too much to drink right before the movie so I didn’t get to see it in its entirety because I fell asleep. I remember some zombies and some chick in a bikini named Aya who had a sword, and she used this sword to fight the zombies. At some point I woke up and she was fighting some other chick who was in a school uniform of some kind. I don’t remember ever seeing this little girl [with arrow]in the movie so I have no idea who she is or what she has to do with the movie. And then the movie ended.

We would’ve remembered everything if we had seen it. But we didn’t, so tough tooty.

Oneechanbara: The Movie Teaser Trailer

newVideoPlayer("oneechanbara.flv", 475, 376,""); Blood-drenched, katana-wielding cowgirls are pretty much the best thing to ever happen to Japanese budget publisher D3. That and Earth Defence Force are its current bread and butter. We’ll see how well the film adaptation of Oneechanbara, the bikinied hack ‘n’ slash zombie-killer holds up to 90 minutes of “story” when it’s released abroad in April. Since I’ll be watching it with the sound off anyway, it should get the job done. For now, a trailer and some imagination will have to suffice.
