Death Trance

Barren plains. Endless winter. A sword's dull gleam. Grave wanders, a warrior seeking worthy combat, until a mysterious monk appears, leading him to a temple and a series of impossible fights. Each opponent more deadly than the last. Shimomura's action choreography emphasizes superhuman feats.
