Ghost Dog woont boven de wereld, samen met een zwerm vogels, in een zelfgebouwd hok op het dak van een verlaten gebouw. Ghost Dog, huurmoordenaar van beroep, laat zich leiden door een oude samoerai-tekst. Hij kan verdwijnen in de nacht en zich onopgemerkt door de stad verplaatsen. Op een dag wordt de code van Ghost Dog verraden door een gestoorde maffiafamilie die soms zijn diensten inhuurt. Hij reageert zoals een echte samoerai.
Nee, helaas is Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
