The movie was filmed in Turkey and released in the U.S. in 1992.[1] This movie represents the first major role for actor Mark Alan Dacascos. PlotAfter a plane crash in the Japanese mountains, its only survivor—a baby named Andrew—is adopted by a samurai master. Andrew, along with the samurai's son, Kenjiro, are trained in the warrior’s way. Andrew excels in his training and soon surpasses his stepbrother’s skills. Kenjiro's jealousy pushes him to join the Yakuza, where he takes the Yakuza oath and forsakes the moral values of the samurai’s code. He leaves his father’s home, swearing to one day take revenge on his brother. Ten years later, Andrew works in L.A. as a journalist. He and a female photographer track down an opium-smuggling operation in Turkey. Soon, the drug dealers kidnapped the girl, forcing Andrew to enter a deadly martial-arts tournament ruled by illegal gamblers whose greatest champion is the lethal Kenjiro. Cast
DVD and versionsThe DVD is available in Region 1. However, it is based on the edited R-rated cut. This version has subtitles added to the days of the tournament (i.e. "Day 2", "Day 3", etc.) Additionally, many scenes of violence or injury are zoomed in on, poorly cropped, or deleted altogether to avoid explicit details. The unrated cut has different dialogue in some scenes, no subtitles, and all of the violence is onscreen and considerably more graphic. This version is not available in the U.S. but can be found in other regions. There is an uncut Belgian bootleg DVD and the British version has approximately one second of footage cut.[2] See also
