“Tokyo Post-War Underworld!”

A gang of ex-GIs and Japanese locals is working in Tokyo, and the Army wants to know who runs it. It sends Eddie Kenner (Robert Stack) in under cover to get close to Sandy Dawson (Robert Ryan), the former soldier who put the crew together. Samuel Fuller sends Stack through the nightlife of the city, with Mariko (Yoshiko Yamaguchi) beside him, and Ryan always watching the room.
