Samurai Warriors With Machine Guns featured in SUCKER PUNCH Concept Art

If you've ever wondered what Samurai warriors would look like holding automatic weapons check out the concept art for Sucker Punch.

Zack Snyder's new film Sucker Punch opens in theaters in the U.S. on March 25th, 2011 and one of the concept artists has posted some of his designs for the surreal world in his blog.

The smoky, dirty feel of the film is perfectly captured in these illustrations by Jerad S. Merantz (X-Men Origins: Wolverine). Rick Carter (Avatar, Jurassic Park), the Production Designer, has assembled an amazing team for this film.
Official Synopsis:

Close your eyes. Open your mind. You will be unprepared.

“Sucker Punch” is an epic action fantasy that takes us into the vivid imagination of a young girl whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, and her incredible adventures blur the lines between what’s real and what is imaginary.

She has been locked away against her will, but Babydoll (Emily Browning) has not lost her will to survive. Determined to fight for her freedom, she urges four other young girls—the outspoken Rocket (Jena Malone), the street-smart Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens), the fiercely loyal Amber (Jamie Chung) and the reluctant Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish)—to band together and try to escape their terrible fate at the hands of their captors, Blue (Oscar Isaac), Madam Gorski (Carla Gugino) and the High Roller (Jon Hamm).

Led by Babydoll, the girls engage in fantastical warfare against everything from samurais to serpents, with a virtual arsenal at their disposal. Together, they must decide what they are willing to sacrifice in order to stay alive. But with the help of a Wise Man (Scott Glenn), their unbelievable journey—if they succeed—will set them free.
