Asian Film Festival of Dallas 2009 - ‘Samurai Avenger: The Blind Wolf’

A low-budget revenge tale with grindhouse flourishes, actor/director Kurando Mitsutake's film follows the bloody trail of a wronged man who battles seven unique assassins to reach the villain who destroyed his life. Blind Wolf (Mitsutake) and The Drifter team up to hunt down Nathan Flesher, a murderous thug who is about to be released from the weakest-looking jail cell in the west (he is able to walk outside freely and beat up guards with impunity...because he is EVIL). Flesher's mercenary killers are charged with taking out the strangers with no name. Yet with each fight the pair gets closer to their final encounter with Flesher, and the audience gets a further glimpse into their blood-soaked reasons for vengeance.

Filled with dirty cowboys, bikini-clad assassins, hypnotic topless samurai, ancient sword masters, snipers, flashbacks, showdowns, severed limbs and helpful narration, Samurai Avenger: The Blind Wolf is for the midnight/exploitation movie-lover in us all.
