Who would have thought we would be seeing a sequel to 47 Ronin among all of the Halloween goodies? But sure enough, Universal 1440 Entertainment, the company’s direct-to-video department, has come up with Blade of the 47 Ronin, a modern-day sequel to the Keanu Reeves samurai epic. And they said there’s no such thing as The Great Pumpkin.
Somewhere in Budapest Yurei kills Arai thought to be the last in the bloodline of those who wielded the Blade of the 47 Ronin. But as he kills him he senses the existence of another heir.
As the other clans argue over what to do about the sword and the prophecy attached to it, Onami one of Lord Shinshiro’s onna-bugeisha reaches out to Reo.

The story of the 47 Ronin is one of the most famous tales of the Samurai era. A story that has been passed down over the years and made into numerous films. It's a classic saga of betrayal, loyalty and sacrifice that makes it perfect for cinematic treatment. The Hollywood version in 2013 proved controversial in it's addition of fantasy elements and the casting of Keanu Reeves in the lead role. In addition to this controversy it was also critically panned. That alone makes the idea of a sequel daunting viewing. Those familiar with the story will also know that it's not exactly one that allows for a follow up. I'm sure the producers will have thought of that and have a completely compelling new narrative for this potential issue…..right??

Thursday, yours truly drove down from La to San Diego for Nerd Christmas. Aka San Diego Comic Con! As my blood yearns for the approval of my Cenobite overlords, I was covering the many horror and creepy and thriller events for More Horror.
After dealing with traffic on the infamous I-5 freeway, I finally made it down to the convention center. Thursday night was the Heavy Metal party and the Resident Evil party in the gaslamp district, but the big event for me was Capcom/FEARnet/ShockTillYouDrop’s Con Of The Dead after party at Voyeur nightclub.
I went to cover the party and ended up meeting up with folks from Machinima and FEARnet, and then met up with good friend Ryan Turek of Shock Till You Drop, where we compared notes and discussed the game plan for dodging the long lines this year. Luckily...
