The latest installment in the Lupin III film series, The Immortal Bloodline, has arrived on digital platforms and for Blu-ray pre-order, bringing a 14-year narrative arc to a conclusion that ventures into unexpectedly dark territory.

This cinematic chapter pushes beyond the franchise's traditional heist-and-humor formula, delving into visceral body horror reminiscent of iconic works like Akira. The film's resolution of its long-running storyline has been described as ambitious yet messy, marking a bold departure for the beloved gentleman thief and his crew.
