St. Jude Square is a neighborhood living in fear and despair. The dueling gangs of local kingpins Dash and Antuan terrorize the streets and the citizens live without a shred of hope... until mysterious stranger Ryan Hong (Cung Le) arrives in town. He begins to play one gang against the other using his unparalleled martial arts skills, and by calling on the teachings of his brilliant mentor Tiano (Jean-Claude Van Damme) to find the strength to battle back. However, just as he begins to bring the community under control, Hong is confronted by Mr. V, the town's ruthless and corrupt police chief. At first Mr. V is impressed by Hong's skill, but soon sees Hong as a threat to his regime, and the two warriors are locked in a head-to-head battle, pitting the fear and corruption of Mr. V's regime versus the new beginning Hong represents for the people of St. Jude Square.。本片是以日本历史上被下层武士奉为神明的武市半平太，发动天诛为故事背景，讲述旗下忠实的追随者“人斩以藏”的故事。武市半平太（仲代达矢饰）于江户建立了土佐勤王党。同时以藏（胜新太郎饰）加入勤王党，并于次年结识田中新兵卫（三岛由纪夫饰），两人作为勤王党的两大“人斩”，活跃于维新幕后。冈田以藏教育程度不高，言谈粗鄙，粗野莽撞且好酒色，但杀人如麻且对武市半平太言听计从.唯一的例外是在坂本龙马（石原裕次郎饰）介绍下担任了胜海舟的护卫。由于土佐藩开始对土佐勤王党进行镇压，党首武市半平太被捕。随之冈田以藏被捕。庆应元年（1865）闰五月十一日，武市半平太被命切腹自尽，而以藏等九人则被处以斩刑。 以藏临终对自己不能被允许切腹而感到耿耿于怀，感觉哪怕是死都得不到平等对待，留下一首辞世之句：君が為め尽くす心は水の泡，消えにし後は澄みわたる空*（我为君尽心尽力，却如水泡一般消逝在澄空中”）。另外本片主演之一的三岛由纪夫相隔一年“切腹报国”。这起极端事件使得很长一段时间里《人斩》这部电影处于被禁言状态。。
