    This review is from: Onechanbara (DVD)
    The film is based on the manga that became a popular PS2 game in Japan. Directed by Youhei Fukuda, the film "OneChanbara the movie" (called Chanbara Beauty in Hong Kong) features three of Japan's top pin-up girls in very significant roles. Eri Otoguro is a scantily-clad woman in a cowboy outfit and a bikini while Chise Nakamura is in a sexy schoolgirl uniform; both sexy women wields katana swords--joined by Minami Hashimoto who plays a biker chick clad in hot leather with a sawed-off shotgun. Do I have your attention yet?

    In a post apocalyptic future, the D3 corporation had performed devilish experiments to raise the dead. These undead creatures started preying on living humans and the humanity is on the brink of extinction. Aya, (upcoming sex siren Eri Otoguro, U.S. remake "Shutter) is the heiress of the ancient Imichi clan of assassins. Aya cuts her way through zombies created by mad scientist Sugita, on the path to vengeance in search of her sister Saki (Chise Nakamura,... Read more

    This review is from: Onechanbara (DVD)
    A movie starring a hot babe wearing only a red bikini with cowboy hat and boots who hunts down zombies with a katana, what hot-blooded heterosexual male WOULDN'T want to watch that film. Well, this isn't THAT film. Sure, our heroine Aya does wear a red bikini, but she spends over half of the movie wrapped up in a blanket, only revealing her divine body during the battle sequences, which are sped up so fast and covered over with so much special effects that I couldn't tell if they were actually fighting each other or having a dance off. Talk about wasted potential. This is a film that would definitely have been better served up as an anime rather than a live action film. For one thing an animated actress cannot complain about it being too cold or feeling exploited.

    As for the storyline, the flow of the movie, the fight sequences, the dialogue and the acting, they are average. It is the zombies that save this movie for me. Their make-up is superb, and though they are... Read more

    3.0 out of 5 stars Lust in Translation? 2&1/2 Stars, at Best, September 10, 2009
    This review is from: Onechanbara (DVD)
    You know going into a film titled ONECHANBARA: SAMURAI BIKINI SQUAD that this probably wasn't directed by Martin Scorsese, but wouldn't it be neat if it was? Actually, if you don't expect this to make much sense, then ONECHANBARA is a reasonable piece of fun / cinematic cheesecake, though the script does lay on the 'family' metaphors a little too thick for its own good. Based on a video game, ONECHANBARA tells the bloody story of two sisters separated since a tragic death of their father in a post-apocalyptic world now populated by zombies that, for the most part, behave like traditional stumbling, bumbling zombies until the script calls for them to use karate and display other feats of athletic prowess. Throw in a chubby sidekick, and you have yourself a video game ... or a grade B motion picture adaption of one. Still, the zombie deaths are a'plenty, so the blood never lets up ... and the lead actress does look good in a leather cowboy hat and her fur-lined bikini. (Call me a... Read more
