😿
Edition screened: Included on Arrow Blu-ray set Sister Street Fighter Collection, released 2019. Japanese language with English subtitles. Runtime approximately 85 minutes.
Summary: Gory encounter with a bull’s head.
Details: During an indoor battle scene, we see a bull’s head sitting decoratively on a table, looking like a taxidermy specimen or possibly a realistic sculpture. A swordsman in the thick of battle takes time to cut the horns off one at a time, then to strike the top of the head which emits a geyser spray of blood. This inscrutable weirdness is 35:17-35:31.
