Watch The Ultra-Violent Trailer For “Path of Blood”

This trailer is crazy as fuck.

Set to release March 13th on Blu-Ray is the debut stop-motion animated film by Eric Power called Path of Blood from Synapse Films. Here’s a synopsis of the Path of Blood:

Japan, 1614. 
War is over. 
Masterless samurai displaced through defeat or reform wander the countryside as Ronin, seeking work where they can find it. Rumors tell of a mountain path, where the brave few can test their skills in battle and live or die by the sword. Yet, none who choose the path of blood ever return. Path of Blood is a cut paper samurai film set during the early years of the Tokugawa Shogunate.  Expect savvy swordsmen, deadly ninja, political intrigue, and gory mayhem!!!

Our Take:

This movie was painstakingly animated by one person by way of using cut-paper animation ala South Park’s pilot episode. The trailer is crazy as fuck and as such, this movie has karate-chopped its way into one of our most anticipated films.
