Movie Trailer: Assault Girls

Ghost in the Shell director Mamoru Oshii’s first full length live action film since Avalon, Assault Girls looks like an awesome flick.  I wish we had a proper HD trailer, but this does enough to wet my appetite.

It will be in limited release in Japan on December 19th, which means we’ll probably have to wait for the Import Blu-Ray release to enjoy it here in the States.  But, I’ll be snatching that up as soon as it’s available for sure.

Check out the trailer and plot synopsis after the jump:

Plot Synopsis:

In the aftermath of global thermonuclear war, the Earth’s surface has been turned into a desert battlefield. Three beautiful female hunters: Gray (Meisa Kuroki), Lucifer (Rinko Kikuchi), and Colonel (Hinako Saeki)  traverse the barren landscape armed with powerful assault rifles to fight a group of deadly sand-dwelling monsters called “sunakujira” (sand whales). When the the epic battle eventually seems to be coming to an end, the sparkle of muzzle flash dies down and assault ship flies overhead. Suddenly, a gigantic super mutation called “Madara Sunakujira” attacks.
