But then again I saw it well over a decade ago.

I'm not sure if it's aged well. Or for that matter, if I've aged well.

I remember watching as many of Kitamura's films as I could find. They were all pretty much duds except for Azumi. Then he came to America and did a mostly garbage horror movie with Bradley Cooper.

I held out for the promised Versus 2 for a few years. Alas, it never happened.

I don't know, Versus appealed to me in a really fun yet juvenile way. It was just a bunch of guys getting together with a small budget saying "Okay, let's make a movie with kung-fu, swords, guns, zombies, Matrix-esque sci-fi, gore, and some comedy sprinkled in. Lights, Camera, ACTION!"

It's absolutely ridiculous and I loved every minute.
