[1] Jake Sawyer (Jason Behr) is a global wanderer and tattooist who explores ethnic themes in his designs.

While visiting Singapore to sell his craft at a local trade show, he swipes an ancient Samoan tattoo tool.

[4] Bloody Disgusting echoed the same sentiments and expressed frustration over The Tattooist, as they believed that the movie could have been "something fresh and original but instead mimicked a bunch of terrible films before it.

"[6] In a positive review, David Johnson of DVD Verdict stated the film is "a frantic, messy, nasty little horror flick and is worth checking out.
