Six-String Samurai(1998)

Vegas Needs a New King.

Six-String Samurai is a post-apocalyptic action film that imagines a world where Russians control a nuked America and Elvis reigns over Lost Vegas. Buddy, a '50s rocker and wandering warrior, travels toward Vegas armed with his guitar and sword, determined to claim the throne from the King himself. When he rescues an orphan along the way, the child becomes his unlikely companion on a journey that blends retro Americana with samurai-style combat. The film combines rockabilly swagger, surreal worldbuilding, and stylized action into a cult classic that defies easy categorization. Buddy's quest becomes as much about redemption and connection as it is about reaching Vegas, all set to a killer soundtrack that captures the spirit of 1950s rock and roll.
