American Samurai marks the return of action hero David Bradley (American Ninja 3 & 4) and introduces International Karate Champion Mark Dacascos in a stunning debut. Two stepbrothers, raised from birth by a Samurai Master, are torn apart by jealousy and rage, when the family's sacred Samurai sword is bestowed upon the adopted son. Vowing revenge, the other son Kenjiro (Dacascos) becomes Yakuza...a gangster who is drawn into the dark and dangerous world of "live blade" fighting. The other son Drew (Bradley) becomes a journalist and travels halfway around the world to investigate the bizarre murder of a fellow reporter. His search takes him into the dark underworld of the Yakuza and there he meets the man who has vowed to kill him...his own brother. Against the barbaric world of high stakes sword combat, the two brothers play out their destiny, knowing only one will survive. From Cannon, creators of Bloodsport, Cyborg, and the American Ninja series, American Samurai contains sweeping fight scenes with a brutal array of modern-day gladiators.
