Power Rangers Samurai: The Team Unites

Stars: Hector David Jr, Brittany Anne Pirtle, Rene Naufahu, Felix Ryan, Kate Elliott, Steven Skyler | Directed by Peter Salmon

Confession time: I have a soft spot for the Power Rangers. From the very first time I saw the original series debut in an early morning slot on ITV, to the shows recent marathon showings on satellite channel Kix!, I’ve kept up with the franchise even if I haven’t seen every episode. For me the show lost it’s way a little once Disney took the reigns – they obviously chose to aim the series at a younger audience than previously, often toning down the violence and over-simplifying the shows stories (it’s especially obvious if you take a look at the original Far East iteration of the show).

Calling all Power Ranger fans of old and new! FremantleMedia Enterprises have announced that they are to release Power Rangers Samurai: The Team Unites on DVD on October 29th. After a long two and a half year wait, Power Rangers return to DVD, recharged, revived and ready to go along with on terrestrial TV via Channel 5 for the first time ever!

The Power Rangers team must master the ancient Symbols of Samurai Power which give them control over the elements of Fire, Water, Sky, Forest and Earth. Under the guidance of their all-knowing mentor and with the aid of their devoted animal Zords, they battle the dark forces of the Netherworld and a mysterious warrior bent on destruction.

When the evil Master Xandred finds a way to escape his dark prison by ship on the evil Sanzu River in the Netherland, the modern day Samurai Power Rangers are called to action.
