East meets Wild West in this bizarre little known title called simply Samurai Western. The boys learn about the true heart of the warrior as they recount a revenge tale set in two genres that actually have more in common than you might think. Gojiro Kiryu has sailed across the Pacific to seek out his renegade brother in a small town in the American west. But when he stumbles across a villainous landowner and his gang of deadly thugs, his samurai honor gets him roped into a fight far bigger than he anticipated.

Also, there's zombies maybe?
