Ryuhei Kitamura's Versus is a movie released in the year 2000. It is an insane, over-the-top romp of violence involving zombies, Yakuza, assassins, two very strange policemen, an immortal villain and Prisoner KSC2-303, played by Tak Sakaguchi.Newly escaped from prison, Prisoner KSC2-303 and his friend meet up with the group of Yakuza who arranged their escape. However, things go horribly wrong when a fight breaks out and one of the Yakuza is shot. Moments later, he rises from the dead and tries to kill them, only to be shot down again by the others. While the Yakuza are occupied with testing this new development by murdering the second of the escapees, Prisoner KSC2-303 takes the opportunity to escape along with girl the Yakuza had kidnapped. In their chase, the Yakuza team realise that the forest was the place they buried their victims and the zombie-victims are far from happy... and worse, they'd buried their victims with their guns to hide evidence.Soon enough, the man behind the zombies arrives. He is a psychotic immortal who plans to use human sacrifice and the power of the forest to open a portal to the 'other side'.A sequel and an American remake were in the pipeline at one point, but there hasn't been any movement on either in years.Not to be confused with the Let's Play series by AttackingTucans and (sometimes) JoshJepson.

comment
Miles Gloriosus: The "Fighter Cop" mentions how he has the ability to smell trails like a bloodhound, has mastered every form of martial art known to man, and how his reflexes are "a hundred times faster than Mike Tyson's!" We never see any of these abilities at work except the last one, and it backfires.

Small Name, Big Ego
 Versus / int_28a5213a
comment
Small Name, Big Ego: Possibly the case with The Fighter detective (or as he is credited as Cop with Barrett) who constantly talks about himself as a dangerous skilled man who is capable at all sorts of things. When he finally gets in a fight with the short-haired female yakuza, she noticeably has the upper hand in the fight-granted it does get cut short before there is a conclusive winner. Then when Prisoner KSC2-303 aims the Barrett at him, The fighter claims he has "five hundred times faster reflexes than Mike Tyson" and tries to Dodge the Bullet only to fail miserably and get blown to pieces.

Tap on the Head: KSC2-303 uses the karate chop to the neck version on The Girl to keep her from interfering with his fights. He does it twice. The third time, she ducks, makes a face at him, and moves out of the way.

Murder Is the Best Solution: Kenji Matsuda's character. Somebody ticks you off? Try to murder him. A guy comes back from the dead? Shoot the guy next to you to see whether he comes back too. Someone lets the guy you want to kill escape? Slice him up, giggling madly, then have him shot. You no longer want to work for the guy who employed you? Hire some assassins!
