Remember the eight-minute short film entitled Mortal Kombat: Rebirth, created by director Kevin Tancharoen to try and kick-start (no pun intended) a live-action film? Well it lived up to its name…

There’s a whole new mini-series called Mortal Kombat: Legacy showing over at Machinima.com in weekly instalments.

It contains adult themes so if you’re of relevant age check out part one below…

Mortal Kombat 9 is out now on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
