RED SWORD (2012) Review: The Red Hood Tale That They’ve Never Told You

A long time ago, there was a tribe of werewolves that had no women. Throughout history, these desperate werewolves have attacked and raped human females as a way to continue their species, but werewolves have a terrible legend that every hundred years, on a night of the red moon, a girl will be born, destined to destroy the werewolf tribe.

The red hood tale that you would never tell to your children, passed through the filter of the political incorrectness of  Japanese V-cinema, in a twisted tale directed by Naoyuki Tomomatsu, that turns the lovely and innocent Red Hood into an avenger, slasher of rapist werewolves, that carries a katana instead of a basket.

An explosive bizarre twisted cocktail of action, horror and erotism, in which Asami portrays the character as an angel of death and justice, that fights her way through, under the excellent action direction of Shigeki Hayase and his stunt team, in non stop action sequences where the queen of V-cinema showcases her amazing skills as screen fighter and fills the screen with her endless charisma.

A delightful entertainment filled with enjoyment, that would delight to fans of rare Asian cinema around the world.

And remember, folks. Beware of the red moon!!!
