FUNimation Entertainment has announced the Blu-ray release of director Fuminori Kizaki's
Bayonetta: Bloody Fate. The full-length feature film is based on the popular
Bayonetta videogame franchise and is produced by Studio Gonzo, the team responsible for
Afro Samurai Resurrection.
Bloody Fate arrives on Blu-ray on October 21st.
Official Synopsis: Twenty years after her awakening, the hottest witch in gaming history is still searching for clues that could help unravel the mysteries of her dark past. Aided in her quest by the clandestine weapon smith Rodin and his deadly creations, Scarborough Fair, Bayonetta continues to leave a trail of angel corpses in her irresistible wake. Her search for answers leads to encounters with a mysterious and eerily familiar little girl, a vengeance-obsessed journalist, and a deadly white-haired beauty that seems to know more about Bayonetta than the witch herself. Fans of the franchise won't want to miss this chance to see their favorite fantasy come to life in a killer flick packed with mind-blowing action and scandalous scenes of seduction.
