Martial arts legend Sonny Chiba stars in the violent but humorous action film THE EXECUTIONER. When the police become helpless to stop the flow of drugs into Japan, one narcotics officer decides to take an unorthodox approach to the problem. He hires three convicts to infiltrate the drug ring and take down its leaders. Lead by an expert martial artist (Chiba), the three men agree to help the police, leading to an orgy of violence and action--in fact, some of Chiba's fans have called this his most brutal film. THE EXECUTIONER reunited Chiba with director Teruo Ishii after their collaboration in STREET FIGHTER'S LAST REVENGE.
