onimusha Onimusha Movie Plot Unveiled, Filled with Spoilers

Christopher Gans left behind the Silent Hill movie, but not the world of videogame movies, as he’s going to be working on the Onimusha film. He made the connection with Capcom by working on the Silent Hill movie, and now according to ComingSoon.net, work on Onimusha will begin in April 2008. The site has also got their hands on a plot synopsis for the movie, which you might not want to read if you want to go into the movie fresh.

In feudal Japan, 1582, the warlord Nobunaga is ambushed by ninjas, led by the brave samurai Samanosuke. Trapped, Nobunaga commits seppuku, but two sinister sorcerers reanimate Nobunaga’s corpse with a half-human insect larvae. The resurrected Nobunaga orders the capture of two very special women to fulfill his evil plans.

When Britta, the daughter of a Dutch merchant, is abducted on board a ship by seemingly invincible warriors, her tutor and confidant Jacob pursues her captors, vowing to rescue her at all costs. Meanwhile, the beautiful Princess Yuki is also kidnapped, this time by ninjas that reveal themselves, incredibly, to be part spider. In search of Yuki, Samanosuke joins forces with Jacob to vanquish their common foe. In the Cave of Elders, he receives a magical sword that will slay all within its reach-friend or foe-and learns of a sinister ceremony at Inabayama Castle intended to blot out the sun.

Performing a dangerous, stealthy invasion of the castle, Samanosuke and Jacob find the women they love dressed as Moon Princess and Daughter of the Sun, ready to be wed to and ravished by Nobunaga. Aided by their allies, the two warriors attack the insectoid hordes, but Samanosuke falls in battle, seemingly dead. In a mystical encounter, he is given the option to survive and fight-but it comes at a terrible cost…

    As long as Jean Reno is in it, I will go see it no matter how craptacular it is. Grrrrr……. :grin:

  2. THE PLOT PROBLEM.

    Onimusha director Christophe Gans should get the screenwriters to rewrite the script again and he should have Choko Sakai and Hirohisa to write the script and Lesley krueger stuffed up that plot for the movie and the plot should be based on Onimusha Warlords game.
    Jesus Mr Gans what the hell were you thinking if you going to do this film start from the beginning and the characters Kaede,Genma Demons and other monsters from the first game shound be featured in the film.
    So sort the script and rewrite it again now before you start filming it’not too late.
    Thank You.
