Introducing Treasured Films' Limited Edition Blu-ray for Mannaja: A Man Called Blade, a 1977 Italian western from director Sergio Martino (2019: After the Fall of New York).

Bounty hunter Blade (Maurizio Merli), who uses a tomahawk as a throwing weapon, arrives at the mining town of Suttonville with the outlaw Burt Craven (Donald O’Brien) as his prisoner. His real motive is to kill mining big boss McGowan (Philippe Leroy) who has killed his father. Blade gives up his revenge – because McGowan “is not worth it” – and instead accepts to deliver the ransom for the mine owner’s daughter (Sonja Jeannine).

However, this mission fails because she turns out to be the lover of her kidnapper, McGowan’s foreman Voller (John Steiner), who secretly works for a gang that regularly robs the shipments of silver from the mine. Voller then kills his boss and turns his mining empire into bloody chaos by massacring the mine workers. Blade is beaten up and buried up to his neck and left to be blinded by the sun. However, he survives and returns for a showdown with Voller.

John Steiner (Salon Kitty, Caligula), Donal O'Brien (Keoma) and Martine Brochard (Eyeball, Il Medium) co-star in this blood-soaked 'Spaghetti Western' which arrived in the twilight of the genre, but is truly a cut above the rest!
