Synopsis

Curtis Bush, a five-time World Kickboxing Champion, portrays Alex Hunter, an aspiring kickboxer whose fiancée and father are brutally murdered by a ruthless and sadistic crime boss. Alex is also tortured and left for dead. He is found and cared for by a wheelchair-bound Vietnam War veteran who becomes his mentor. Under his guidance, Alex evolves into a vengeful streetfighter—a one-man vigilante and lethal force known as The Dark Angel. Driven by controlled fury and a desire for revenge, Alex targets the city's criminal underworld, with the untouchable crime boss as his ultimate enemy. A tabloid journalist, determined to uncover The Dark Angel's true identity, begins investigating, but Alex remains focused on his mission of retribution. To achieve his goal, he must enter the Arena of Death and defeat a series of savage fighters brought in from around the world by the crime boss.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 15

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
