Summary:
The Street Fighter - Sonny Chiba is Takuma (Terry in the dub) Tsurugi, the infamous Street Fighter in the films which catapuled him to international fame. In breathtaking, hyper-violent confrontations, Turugi battles the mafia, the yakuza, uncovers drug rings and dirty cops and dodges assassination attempts. With bravura and unrelenting action, the notoriously violent Street Fighter series raised the bar for martial arts movies.
Return of the Street Fighter - In this sequel, Martial artist Takuma (Terry) Tsurugi returns to take on a Yakuza family that may be embezzling money from charities to finance their own operations. Both the police and the Yakuza find themselves battling Tsurugi, but Tsurugi's fight ultimately is with the mob, and he concentrates on them.
