You don’t have to take my word for it when it comes to Mitsutake Kurando’s new movie, Karate Kill…however, I sincerely hope you do. Or that of any other critic for that matter while our dear director, with only a small raft of films to his credit, continues to perform nothing short of impressively behind the lens.
The film has already been the center of progressive festival success in select events around the world. It’s even moreso to his credit and that of our cast led by actor and martial artist Hayate whose debut lead role finds him landing in the U.S. from Japan in search of his missing sister – a mission that gets real violent, REAL fast!
When a mysterious loner and Karate master Kenji’s little sister goes missing in Los Angeles, whoever stands in his way of finding her will face the wrath of a lethal KARATE KILL!
Earlier reports hyped a May U.S. release but Petri Entertainment has since confirmed a North American VoD, Blu-Ray and DVD release set for June 18 via Petri’s Dark Cuts shingle. Thus, they’ve granted a trailer to make it further official and you can now view it below.
Also starring are Asami, Sakura Mana, Katrina Leigh Waters and Kirk Geiger. Mark your calendars!
