Another Hole in the Head Festival 2009

“Sin City” meets “Kill Bill” meets “Grindhouse”—it’s a visual tour de force, and not your standard samurai flick! While camping in the desert, an innocent family is attacked by the personification of evil, Nathan Flesher. After unbelievable brutality, the father, who was witness to his wife and child’s murder, is forced to take out his own eyes in a scene so graphic you will squirm in your seat. The senseless killing of his family plants the seed of vengeance and Blind Wolf is born! Years later Blind Wolf returns as a master samurai. Flesher is about to be released from prison and has arranged for seven assassins to kill Blind Wolf. Deadpan narration adds sly humor to the slicing, dicing and the lobbing off of parts that splatter along The Blind Wolf’s path to revenge.--Mike Skurko
