25th Anniversary screening!
“One of the greatest offerings to genre cinema, mashing martial arts, action, horror, comedy and sci-fi themes into a still very entertaining film even after repeat viewings.” —Andrew Mack, SCREEN ANARCHY
A group of ruthless yakuza, a nameless woman and an escaped convict unknowingly meet in The Forest of Resurrection—the 444th portal of the 666 hidden gates that link earth to the netherworld. Trouble starts to brew when those killed in the forest start returning from the dead and an ancient evil spirit returns to claim his prize. A gruesome, bloody battle between Light and Dark ensues. Directed by Ryûhei Kitamura (GODZILLA: FINAL WARS), VERSUS is a 2 hour masterclass of hyper-kinetic horror-action fusing ancient Samurai mysticism with new world gangsters and guns. (BRANDON LIM)
