Heroic Bloodshed is online!
The full director's cut of our John Woo tribute film Heroic Bloodshed is now online. If you think you've already seen this film, think again. This is the extended, uncut version as it was meant to be seen. No contest time limits or restrictions!
It's an entry in Spike Lee's Babelgum Online Film Festival and it needs your votes to succeed! You can vote once every day so come back as often as you want!
**Please note: You have to install their "Babelgum Player" in order to watch videos on their site (not the most user-friendly) and even then it might not work for some. I will be posting this on more accessible video sites soon so if you can't get it to work you'll still be able to see it later.
