Ming Tsu, the bloodthirsty outlaw in Tom Lin’s surreal new Western, has a lethal superpower: His victims, blinded by their own bias, don’t realize he’s a threat until it’s too late.
In one grisly scene, he confronts his nemesis, the head of the Central Pacific Railroad Co., who forced Ming into servitude for a decade. His old boss has been on the lookout for Ming since his escape but fails to notice him in the crowd of Chinese immigrant laborers as he draws his revolver.
"Ain’t you recognize me?” Ming says, before pulling the trigger.
