Marked for Death

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marked for Death is a 1990 action film directed by Dwight H. Little. It stars Steven Seagal as John Hatcher, a former law enforcement agent. Upon moving back to his home town, Hatcher finds it taken over by a gang of vicious Jamaican drug dealers, led by the horrifying Screwface (played by Basil Wallace).

The fight scenes in the film are arguably Seagal's best, integrating heavy elements of aikido, as well as good use of weapons and arm dislocations. Seagal supposedly studied Jamaican voodoo rituals in depth to make the film.
