About Samurai Avenger: The Blind Wolf
A blind man seeks revenge against the psychopath who took away his sight and slaughtered his wife and daughter. Eight years after the massacre, the man has returned to the desert town, now a highly trained samurai swordsman ready to seek justice. But he doesn't know there awaits seven assassins hired by his sworn enemy who want the bounty on his head. Set in nowhere, no time, this bloody modern day fable is a new age hybrid action film with a classic samurai essence and a spaghetti western spirit. This is, "Sushi Western!"
Directed by Kurando Mitsutake, Samurai Avenger: The Blind Wolf leans on a strong ensemble — Domiziano Arcangeli, Kurando Mitsutake, Jeffrey James Lippold — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2009.
