Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair (2004)
A unified version of Kill Bill, The Whole Bloody Affair follows The Bride, a former assassin who wakes from a coma after her former boss and lover Bill ambushes her wedding rehearsal and leaves her for dead. She sets out on a revenge campaign against the remaining members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad before confronting Bill himself. The film combines the two Kill Bill volumes into one unrated epic, restoring the intended single-film structure and adding extra material.
