HighLander: The Search For Vengeance
The MADhouse(FFVII, Chi’s sweet Home, Chobits and more) project is now on sale at all Poh Kim now… Do note that although it’s directed and animated by MADHouse… But it’s a really good film, however it does have it’s share of trouble…
The DVD release itself is a little disappointing thou… It didn’t come with Japanese dub, quite forgiveable given it’s American decent…
The DVD’s information is posted after the JUMP.

In revenge, patience is a virtue. In the new tale, the lone Colin travels with the wisecracking ghost Amergan across a desolated landscape searching for the immortal despot Marcus Octavius, who killed his love Moya(she don’t play tenis) on the Celtic plains ten of centuries ago. On his quest, he discovers New York submerged with one monolith fortress towering over the seas. Colin must confront Marcus in a showdown where the future of all men will be decided. Colin can svae the survivors, but his sword only hungers for the blood of one man. Will Colin lead the people to freedom or become comsumed by hate?
Remember,
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.
Although like i said the DVD release don’t have Japanese Dub and you are stuck with English for most, but given that this animated feature is made with english dub in mind. The english voice actors are actually quite good.
The feature itself don’t really have the hold that is found on traditional Highlander medias, with the ending being bland… Not enough emotion is found on the ending and it just feels weird…
Do note that the DVD is most likely a copy of the US release, meaning this is not the full original version that the director made. The America release is shorter then the original edit.
