Synopsis

Former Army intelligence operative Matt Hunter retired from duty to take care of his young sister and grandfather on their Louisiana farm after his parents were killed. One of his best friends, Larry Richards, is running for the Senate in Louisiana. But as an African American, Larry is met with violent opposition from a racist group, Pentangle, who will do anything to prevent him from winning. When Matt must use his martial arts skills to protect his friend, Pentangle is impressed and decide that they want him on their side. Eventually, Pentangle succeeds in killing Larry and his family and then kidnaps Matt's sister to persuade him to join forces with them, but this only causes Matt to go on the attack himself.
