Dead or Alive is a movie about a contest. This contest is a fight to the death between a group of highly skilled fighters. The contest takes place on an island with the reward being a few million dollars. The island is not on the map. The contestants are flown and dropped out of a plane to the island below. The tournament is held on a yearly basis and is highly secretive. There are around ten competitors overall. The seven main competitors are Kasumi, Tina, Bass, Christie, Max, Hayabusa, and Helena. Kasumi is a ninja princess. Her brother has mysteriously disappeared after competing in the tournament. She has given up her title just to come to the tournament to find out what had happened to her brother. She believes that he may be either in danger or murdered. Her brother’s friend Hayabusa has accompanied her and becomes a competitor as well. He has promised her brother that he will keep Kasumi safe. The next set of competitors is a father and daughter wrestling team. Bass has been in wrestling and cannot think of anything else that he wants to do with his life. His daughter, Tina, wants to be taken seriously as a fighter. She refuses to wrestle because she feels like it is too showy. Christie and Max are master thieves. They plan on stealing the prize money and another ninety million from the safe during or after the competition. The last new competitor is Helena. She grew up on the island and her father was the man who ran the tournament until he died. Helena is happy because this year she was old enough to finally compete in the tournament. The contest progresses and several of the contestants lose. They keep going until the final day where Kasumi, Christie, and Tina discover Kasumi’s brother unconscious.
