Storyline:
Anthony is in the Phillipines visiting his father. He inadvertently interferes with the affairs of local gangster Quino, who also happens to be a champion Karate fighter. After embarrassing Quino near a local tournament, Anthony is beaten up and left for dead. An old monk nurses Anthony back to health and teaches him the ways of martial arts so he may go back and fight Quino again.
User review:
This one tries its best to tie a story together. Does it work? Not really and our so called hero spends most of his time as a human punching bag. Also, a reclusive monk who ponders tranquility in a forest(?) is one that I’ve never seen in any Shaw Bros. film. The training scenes with casio background music are a highlight and yes, livestock will be harmed! A karate tournament is held in a boxing ring and it looked that the public was really getting into the movie. Honestly, it’s hard to side with our “hero” and you can’t blame Quino for blowing up after taking a foot to the groin. OUCH!! Unintentionally, the logic withing the dialogue seems flawed or maybe something is missing in translation. Otherwise, you’re going to laugh at this low blow, B-grade karate romp.

Been after this movie for a while. It’s truly dreadful but I like it for other reasons. Thanks boss.
Hello, could you help me find a old french movie I believe it was posted here? I don’t remember much, I only know it’s french I’m pretty sure it’s old because of the image quality. I remember one specific scene, tho. There are two boys in a room, the movie’s protagonist and his friend, and both of them are wrestling, at some point they get tired I believe and they go lay side by side on the room’s bed. Do you know what movie is this? I remember their bodies are oiled and they’re are just in undies and at some point some lady walks into the room I guess.
