Released: 2007
Adventure, Action, Comedy, Western, Thriller
Several hundred years after the Battle of Dannoura, the Genji and Heike clans face off again in a poor mountain town with a buried treasure legend. A revolver-wielding stranger, a lone gunman, burdened with emotional scars and blessed with incredible skill, drifts into town and crosses paths with two warring clans who are both on the hunt for a hidden treasure in a remote western town. Knowing his services are valuable to either side, he offers himself to the clan who will offer up the largest share of the wealth. Yoshitsune commands his Genji gang in white while Kiyomori leads his Heike gang in red. Expectations collide as the key players wonder which gang the gunman will join. Dirty tricks, betrayal, desire and finally, love, get jumbled together, as the situation erupts into a showdown.

Scenes
Ruriko a/k/a Bloody Benton (Kaori Momoi) pees standing up in her dress (shown from behind with no stream visible). Upon noticing that a wounded man has spotted her, she turns around with embarrassment and shoots him to keep him from telling anyone what he has seen. This scene is easy to miss when watching the film, and might only be in the original cut (which is 1/2 hour longer than the international version).
