Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins
1985, English. Directed by Guy Hamilton.
A hero who doesn't exist must save America from an enemy we never knew we had.
Tough Brooklyn street cop Sam Makin is unwillingly recruited as an assassin for a secret United States organization known as CURE, who fake his death and give him a new identity: Remo Williams. With his appearance surgically altered, Williams is trained to be a human killing machine by his aged, derisive and impassive Korean martial arts master Chiun.
