Title (Japanese) Landlock

Advertising
Fantasy Novel

Notes OVA series: 2 episodes, 1995, Orca/Sega/Sanctuary.
UK: Manga Video. (90mins, cert. 15, release date 8 March 1998 in UK)

Classification -

Synopsis It's a fantasy, with the now common mixture of rural/medieval and high-tech. The young protagonists have powers that are desired by the ruler of a militaristic empire. Violence, tragedy, deception and filial love abound.
The island of Zer'lue is in turmoil, as the technologically advanced Zul'earth military of the evil Chariman Sana'ku ravage everywhere. The hero Lue'der posesses a mysterious red eye and the ability to control the wind. His enemy is Sana'ku's daughter Agalee, an elite assassin who personally killed Lue'der's father.

Review Landlock has a dramatic story with plenty of action. It's not at all bad, being let down mainly by some poor dubbing, and the first half remains firmly in my mind from a subbed convention screening many months ago. As far as I know it's the only MV release for Feb/March. Seems they have adopted a new policy of releasing only better quality releases, much less often. It's fair to say that this is the best video MV have released here for ages, but it's equally fair to warn that this is more to do with the awfulness of what has gone before than the quality of LANDLOCK.
