When skiers in Japan come across the frozen body of centuries-old samurai warrior Yoshimita, scientists secretly whisk the corpse to a high-tech laboratory in California, where they bring him back to life. But when Yoshimita escapes onto the mean streets of 1980s Los Angeles, his ancient and strict code of honor gets him both into and out of trouble. J. Larry Carroll directs this low-budget action fantasy.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scrappy 80s action film that plays absurdity straight, following a displaced samurai navigating modern Los Angeles with his ancient code of conduct. It's low-budget charm meets genuine fish-out-of-water tension, with the collision between honor and 1980s urban chaos doing the heavy lifting.
