The start to a Highlander movie that doesn't suck.
Night. Rainy street in a European city. Old part of town. Cars driving by with headlights in the rain. Duncan walking down the street in his trench coat. Cut to motorcycle cutting in and out of traffic at high speeds in the rain. Have a cool car drive in front of the motorcycle. Motorcycle gets pissed and wheelies over the car. Credits rolling during the scene.
Motorcycle goes speeding past Duncan. (immortal buzz) Motorcycle breaks and skids to a stop in front of an opening to an alley way 20 to 30 feet in front of Duncan. Motorcycle man flips up his visor. Glares at Duncan. Motorcycle goes speeding off into the alley.
Duncan races down the side walk. Turns down the alley. Opens his trench coat ready to pull out his sword. Walks down the alley. No lights very dark. The motorcycle is parked up ahead with the occupant standing, head bowed, sword touching the ground. Samurai stance. title
Duncan: Who are you?
Motorcycle man: (japanese) Names do not matter. Only your head.
Duncan: (japanese) Names do matter. (english) I am Duncan Macleod of the Clan Macleod.
Motorcycle man looks up pissed. Duncan draws his sword. Start playing music in the background. Remake version of Princes of the Universe by Queen. With a darker tone.
Battle starts.
Battle ends.
Pan up through the building cloud clearing. Moon shines. Pan back down to (timeperiod)
