Trailer for Koichi Sakamoto’s ‘Broken Path’

From action director Koichi Sakamoto and Alpha Stunts, the action team behind Steve Wang’s DRIVE and DEVIL MAY CRY 3 (the video game) comes BROKEN PATH, starring former Power Ranger Johnny Bosch. From the trailer, this looks to be a seriously hard-hitting and relentless martial arts thriller that finally delivers.

In addition to being a longtime Power Ranger, Bosch starred in Sakamoto’s first directing gig, WICKED GAME, alongside Motoko Nagino who also appears in BROKEN PATH. Bosch has also done considerable voice acting on video game and anime projects. He’s currently finishing up STRAY, an action film he wrote and directed.

For the last decade, Sakamoto and his Alpha Stunts team have been the driving force behind the fighting action in the ongoing POWER RANGERS TV franchise. Yeah, that’s kids stuff but what Alpha Stunts has been doing outside of the franchise is anything but. Sakamoto’s stunt choreography credits include HELLRAISER: INFERNO and DRACULA 2000. He also teamed with fellow POWER RANGERS vet Isaac Florentine on SAVATE. Florentine, of course, has made his own name for directing genre favorites like U.S. SEALS 2 and UNDISPUTED 2.

Speaking of U.S. SEALS 2, one of its stars, Dan Southworth also stars in BROKEN PATH.

The question is when can we see it? Tricoast Worldwide has their hands on it now, hopefully already working out a distribution deal. If not, they’ll be at AFM next month so hopefully we’ll get an update before the end of the year.
