From the Shadow Tracker: Vampire Hunter DVD Box:
They hid in the shadows fearing only one man... SHADOW TRACKER. From the ashes of Vietman comes a new anti-hero. He had left his lifelong friend Jonathan Stokes behind in a foreign land, wounded prey of the undead that would haunt his
life forever.
He had walked the edge of reality with these creatures that had become his reason
for existence. Tracker could never be free of the guilt of leaving his friend behind. Revenge and retaliation against the undead that once were of primitive legends had become his absolution... his crusade... his mission... his DESTINY!
DESTINY of a girl named Samantha, who must find Shadow Tracker and Jonathan Stokes at any cost. DESTINY of Lisa, her love torn between her boyfriend and a mysterious man known as Jonathan. The living dead, they hid in the shadows stalking innocent prey...
