How Snowblade gets made...

Snowblade wraps first blood soaked scenes.

After a week of sweat and (mainly fake) blood, we have our first couple of scenes in the can. My thanks to our terrific team, all the Ace crew, actor Taeki Gong (who wrapped today) and, of course, our lethal leading lady Sable Yu...

Here are some more images and quirky comments from the set...
