Mutant Chronicles is one of my all-time fav movies, but no one else has seen it.

if you want the back story of Mutant Chronicles movie, it's goes back to the Mutant Chronicles RPG. The gist is that technology regressed due to the Dark Symmetry being able to take control of technology. So in order to abate the advances of the Dark Legion which serves the Dark Symmetry, everyone went back to using tech that couldn't be controlled by the Dark Symmetry (thus the steam punk feel). Each of the corporations represents one of the WWII powers, Capitol being the US, Imperial being the UK, Bahaus being Germany, and Mishima being Japan. The Brotherhood is modelled on the Catholic Church of the Dark Ages/Middle Ages.
