Maurizio Merli (the iconic star of 70s Italian cop movies) stars as a hatchet-wielding bounty hunter with a dark past and an even more desperate future. But when he disrupts the balance of power in a corrupt mining town, he unleashes a firestorm of brutality, betrayal and cold-blooded murder. Now, one man stalks a savage land where justice walks a razor and no bullets slice deeper than vengeance. He is A MAN CALLED BLADE. John Steiner (SALON KITTY, CALIGULA) and Donal O'Brien (RUN MAN RUN, KEOMA) co-star in this muddy, bloody and extreme 'Spaghetti Western' that is truly a cut above the rest. Co-written and directed by the notorious Sergio Martino (TORSO, MOUNTAIN OF THE CANNIBAL GOD), MANNAJA: A MAN CALLED BLADE has been fully restored from original Italian vault materials including its infamous 'eyeball torture' scenes.
