2009 AFI Dallas Film Festival - Yoroi: The Samurai Zombie

(Japan, 2008, 91 mins)
In Japanese with English subtitles
35mm
Directed By: Tak Sakaguchi

A family on vacation is car-jacked and kidnapped by a couple of criminals. To elude the authorities, the criminals take the family deep into the woods that is cursed by the spirits of the undead. There, the group must face their inescapable karma and destiny.

Yoroi: Samurai Zombie is the second feature directorial effort from the baddest zombie killer himself, Tak Sakaguchi (Versus, Death Trance). Sakaguchi once again teams up with screenwriter Ryuhei Kitamura (Versus), for a film that is not only sure to satisfy your blood thirst but also offers some incredible next generation “real action” stunts (no CG or camera trick) by Sakaguchi’s own action stunt team, Team Zeros.
