Plot:

Tormented by guilt and embroiled in a literal dead-end affair with a woman he widowed in the line of duty, renegade Detective Kuroiwa (Tetsuya Watari -- Tokyo Drifter) is the one-man definition of "rogue cop." When his corrupt superiors assign Kuroiwa to the organized crime beat, they inadvertently pull the pin on a gun-toting human hand-grenade. Violating his "hands-off" orders, Kuroiwa plunges fists first into the Nishida gang yakuza underworld. And when he meets Keiko (70s Japanese action film icon Meiko Kaji -- Lady Snowblood, Female Prisoner Scorpion), the beautiful half-Korean wife of an imprisoned Nishida boss, Kuroiwa finds himself risking much more than just his badge. Outlaw cop and gang-moll become both lovers and unwitting pawns in a brazen, police-sanctioned yakuza power-grab conspiracy. As Kuroiwa is forced to choose a side, the stage is set for betrayal, degradation and massacre.
