10 Movie Props You Won't Believe Were Re-Used In Other Films

7. Kill Bill's Samurai Swords - Sin City

Kill Bill: Volume 1 features a whole heap of swordplay, with The Bride (Uma Thurman), O-Ren Ishii (Lucy Liu) and her Crazy 88 army all making liberal use of their bladed weapons.

But two of the samurai swords used by the Crazy 88 actually found their way into Robert Rodriguez's Sin City just two years later, as wielded by the lithe-yet-lethal Miho (Devon Aoki).

Quentin Tarantino, who is of course close friends with Rodriguez, had been keeping the swords in his garage, and offered them to Rodriguez to use in the film.

The story gets even cooler on the Sin City DVD, however, where Sin City creator Frank Miller states that he has personally ret-conned Miho's swords to have been created by Kill Bill's legendary swordsmith Hattori Hanzo (Sonny Chiba). This was at the suggestion of Rodriguez himself.
