Description
[Machine Translation] The 11th film from Sam Peckinpah, the most unique director of his career and a master of depicting extreme violence. The film is a large-scale entertainment action film about "elite killers" who kill each other using all kinds of deadly techniques, including fierce gun battles, karate, kung fu, and ninja techniques. Especially, in the strange battle of the ninja army that suddenly appears in the latter half of the film, the ninja action is explosive, which even Tarantino, the director of "Kill Bill," would have been proud of. The film is written by Sterling Silliphant, the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of "The Night's Greatest Cops" ('67), and features the late Bruce Lee as a martial arts master. Silliphant, who had received martial arts training from the late Bruce Lee, included kung fu scenes in the script and even introduced a ninja group, resulting in the first ninja film made in Hollywood. The cast includes James Caan (The Godfather), Robert Duvall (The Organization), and Gig Young (Garcia's Head). The film, which cost over $6 million to produce, was controversial for its absurd content, but was released in the U.S. in December 1975 and quickly became a smash hit that recouped its production costs. --Mike is a member of Comteg, a private security organization in San Francisco, when he is betrayed by his comrade George in the line of duty and is mortally wounded.
