Bunraku

Using cutting-edge visuals and heart-pounding fight choreography, "Bunraku" combines comic-books, spaghetti westerns, samurai films, video-games, and more into a stunning glimpse at an alternate future. In a world without guns, a mysterious drifter (Josh Hartnett) walks into a strange town terrorized by the ruthless Nicola (Ron Perlman) and his army of thugs, headed by nine deadly assassins including the vicious Killer #2 (Kevin McKidd). The drifter is forced to trust a young samurai (Japanese superstar Gackt) looking to restore his family's honor, and the local bartender (Woody Harrelson) who has been secretly awaiting a dream team to help overthrow Nicola’s tyrannical regime.
