Jerry Janda — writer, producer, and co-star of PAINKILLER — has made his sole directorial debut with KAISHAKUNIN, a short film he also wrote and co-produced.

Centering on the story of a samurai’s ghost, KAISHAKUNIN explores honor, betrayal, the nature of truth, and the power of legend. It’s probably also the only samurai ghost film shot in York, Pennsylvania.

Enjoy!
