Samurai Princess
A new samurai is born.
Directed by Kengo Kaji
A visceral, surreal revenge gore-fest that weaponizes trauma through absurdist body horror and high-octane action.
When 11 of her friends are raped and murdered, leaving the Samurai Princess (Aino Kishi) the only survivor, she becomes infused with her comrades' souls. Transformed into an android, she sets out to avenge their deaths. Dai Mizuno co-stars as the princess's human partner in this Kengo Kaji-directed gore fest that features breast grenades, detachable chainsaw limbs, deadly guitar riffs and more.
