Sean Vetter and Demetrius Hicks, former criminals, are members of the U.S. DEA working on the California/Mexico border. After arresting drug baron, Memo Lucero, the mysterious "Diablo" steps in and organizes the assassination of Vetter, but his wife, Stacy is killed instead.

Looking for revenge, Vetter acts outside the law to punish his wife's murderers. To accomplish that, he asks Memo, now in prison, for help finding Diablo. With Hicks' help, he hunts every member of the cartel from the bottom to the top of the organization's hierarchy and finds that Memo is linked to the recent activities.

Home video

A Man Apart was released on DVD on September 2, 2003, as a 'barebones' release, containing no special features except deleted scenes and trailers. It was criticized for its poor video transfer. The film was later released on Blu-ray Disc on August 14, 2012.

Lawsuit

The film's original title, "Diablo" was the subject of a lawsuit[4] by the video game company Blizzard Entertainment in 2001 when the developer/publisher filed against New Line Cinema, claiming trademark infringement on the name Diablo (a title used by Blizzard for a franchise of role-playing video games). A court initially ruled in favor of Blizzard, but the decision was reversed on appeal.[5] Ultimately, New Line changed the film's name.
