- Synopsis
- In the ruthless underground world of the yakuza, no one is more legendary than boss Kamiura (Lily Franky). Rumored to be invincible, the truth is he is a vampire – a blood sucking yakuza vampire boss! Among Kamiura’s gang is Kageyama (Hayato Ichihara), his most loyal underling. However, the others in the gang view Kageyama with disdain and ridicule him for his inability to get tattooed due to sensitive skin.
  One day, assassins aware of boss Kamiura’s secret arrive from abroad and deliver him an ultimatum: return to the international syndicate you left years ago or die. Kamiura refuses and, during a fierce battle with anime-otaku martial arts expert Kyoken (Yayan Ruhian), is torn limb from limb. With his dying breath, Kamiura bites Kageyama, passing on his vampire powers to the unsuspecting yakuza…
