Lone Samurai
Lone Samurai: A 13th-century samurai finds himself shipwrecked on an island he believes to be desolate. As he muses on his life, it appears that the best course of action for him could be to take his own life in a dignified manner. However, when he is captured by the violent cannibal clan that makes this island home, his survival instinct kicks in. Lone Samurai, directed by Josh Waller (Raze, McCanick) and starring Shogen Ito, is an existential action film unlike any other.

The film — directed by Josh C. Waller and starring Shogen Ito along with Yayan Ruhian — tells the brutal, gripping story of a 13th-century samurai shipwrecked on a deserted island who must survive against a savage cannibal tribe.
Early reviews describe the film as a stark, unsettling yet atmospheric mix of existential drama and visceral sword-play — the vivid setting, intense action sequences in the second half, and the lead’s commanding performance make it “definitely worth watching,” even if some find its shifting tone a bit uneven.
