Not that long ago I gave you the first trailer for Lee Jun-ik's Like The Moon Escaping From The Clouds, well below is trailer 2 for the movie with its new shorter name Blades of Blood.
The new name of the movie is virtually a exact translation of original Korean name, I think it may have alot to do with the Western Market. If you did see this movie advertised you may aitomatically assume it's more a love story rather historical war drama.
Apart from the movies name you may automatically assume this is an rip-off of the classic Japanese Zaoitichi series due to the fact the movies main protaginist is blind, actually there's no connection the story comes from a Korean manga comicbook though I would count out some inspiration from the Japanese story.
Like'em or loathe'm the Asian movie industry know how to do an epic historical battle with great ease, check out the new extended teaser trailer (no.2).

If Tim Burton met Edgar Allan Poe down a dark alley and decide to create a animation THE ROMANTIC would be there outcome. The movie is directed (and written) by Michael Heneghan and if you happening to be in Boston today or on Tuesday you can check out the world premier of this at the Boston Underground Film Festival.
 Read the Synopsis and check out the trailer below;
The curious citizens that inhabit the wondrous land of Vauxhull believe the universe to be governed by four gods. There’s Po, the flirtatious and free spirited Goddess of Love; Pik, the macabre Lord of Hate; and Pjorrc, the God of Time, who diabolically plots over the earth from his clockwork fortress on the moon.



Lastly, there is Obble-Dee-Puh Puh, the God of All Gods and Creator of All Things. The shrouded king who sits comfortably upon a throne of ascendancy, controlling the destinies of all living things. Men live their lives whilst the gods provide them with the means to make them extraordinary. And there is balance.


But within this mythological world of autumn landscapes and peculiar creatures, a heartbroken young Romantic swears a vicious oath to free the human race from the omnipotent control of the otherworldly gods. Blaming the divine forces for the loss of a past love, Romance embarks on a vengeful showdown with the Holy Host. Along the way he befriends Patience, a crackpot alcoholic who fulfills the role of mentor to Romance’s hero. Together the two traverse the lands, romancing women and hunting the divine.


But the Gods have their own agendas, and some are more willing to part with their lives than others. As the romance enfolds, a macramé of horri c causality materializes, tying the major players together in a net of family relationships and betrayal. Elsewhere, a monstrous religious zealot by the name of Fat Daddy manipulates the human race into following his royal son and their conservative manifesto entitled The Poetic End. As Romance and Patience’s journey continues, it becomes more and more evident that the world is changing and there are forces both human and divine that will stop at nothing to determine the shape that this new world will embrace.
