Description: Mythic cult martial arts flick gets a director-approved restoration! Introducing Arrow Video's Blu-ray release for 2000s Versus. This cult classic caused a sensation both in Japan and internationally upon its release, launching the careers of director Ryuhei Kitamura (Godzilla Final Wars, Midnight Meat Train) and action star and fight choreographer Tak Sakaguchi (Re:Born, Battlefield Baseball, Yakuza Weapon). A relentless one-of-a-kind sensory assault chock-full of hyperkinetic fight scenes, gangster shootouts, sword-slashing violence, and gory zombie horror, Versus was a key title amongst the barrage of innovative horror and action movies that appeared as if from nowhere from Japan at the turn of the millennium, leading to a new wave of appreciation for Asian extreme cinema.
