That said, given that the creators of that movie probably don't even know what kendo is, let alone its sister school, I think general hack n' slash is fine.

Also countering vampire regeneration does not change the fact that using fast stabs and slashes comprise roughly 90% of all swordsman styles in existence. Sword fights are not meant to be long, drawn-out feats of machismo, you want the other fucker dead as quickly as possible. Cutting at the base of the limb is also completely normal due to having weaker ligaments and muscle to cut through at the joint, as well as being one of the weak spots of most forms of armor.
