Sword of Alexander
A riotous period/fantasy/Samurai spoof with free-spirited Genkuro wandering the land with the mighty 'Sword of Alexander', one of three mystical objects that each bring their owners superhuman powers; however when one person wields all three, they will become an unstoppable force! All manner of crazy Japanese cultural icons are lampooned including a giant man with a giant sword, alien possession, a villain who can turn himself into a swarm of locusts and cult icon Riki Takeuchi in his most gloriously over-the-top performance in years.
