Description

I couldn't decide what to use for my next movie poster project-- ninjas or Nazis, so I chose both. B-)


Plot Summary: In 1935, a very prominent and well-feared samurai warrior Hitoshi Tanaka mutilates his wife whom he claims is having an affair with the other men in his village, leaving her horribly disfigured and locked away in the basement of his home. In 1942, during World War II, a group of Nazis are stationed in the same village, now taking on a new enemy-- ninjas. The lock on the cellar door which contained the slit-mouthed woman is broken and she is unleashed. If she asks any German soldier if she is beautiful and they answer no because of her horrible facial disfigurement and lack of jaw line, they die. As the body count continues to increase, the SS leaders turn to a most unlikely source for help-- Akio Chang, an elite master swordsman and samurai warlord, and Caterina, a very beautiful, mystical, nude forest nymph...

I'm loving the cast of characters on this one! (JACKIE CHAN AND FRANÇOIS CHAU IN THE SAME MOVIE?!?!?:hooray: :icontarddanceplz:)

Since the legend of Kuchisake-Onna says she is a ghost, perhaps as she was in the basement, she wasted away and died, then became a ghost. During the opening credits, it might have Tanaka and he hears from a friend his wife, who is a tailor, is sleeping around and he furiously goes home and mutilates her, then seals her in the basement. I would think that the scenes of him heading home, mutilating her then locking her in the basement would be broken up by the introductory credits like in Inuyasha: Affections Touching Across Time. (I loved the intro credits for that so check it out!). Then after he locks her away, the title appears and it time skips to the Nazi reign and them coming to Japan.
The ninjas have taken over the village because the samurai turned over to the Nazi/Japanese government's side. And they fight off the Nazis and their who allied with old enemy, the samurai. As battles between the Nazis and the ninjas play out, as well as scenes with the Nazis trying to settle down in Japan, it could be broken up by scenes with the Kuchisake-Onna in the basement showing her going crazy. The shots could only have her shadows on the walls and shots of her hands all bloody from trying to escape. There could also be bloody scratch marks all over the walls and floor and kana (japanese writing) written in her blood that say "Aren't I beautiful?" or something creepy like that.
The Nazis ransack the houses looking for something that might help them defeat the ninja, and they come to Tanaka's house. They see sealing talismans all over the door and decide to rip them off. Kuchisake-Onna escapes and asks them if she's beautiful. They're all revolted by her face so she kills them by ripping them apart. She finds her old tailor scissors and carries them around as a weapon. Greatly insulted by the soldiers, she walks around covering her face with her kimono sleeve. She goes on a killing spree throughout the province and one of her victims is Jackie Chan's son (Kuchisake-Onna usually targets young children). And she also has a close encounter with Caterina and kills Caterina's husband. When the Nazis go looking for a way to stop her, Caterina and Jackie Chan step up to the challenge to avenge their loved ones.


Ahhh this was a long one again....
