Holy sh*t, THAT. LOOKS. AWESOME.
I read a write-up about this movie in "Entertainment Weekly" a month or two ago, it sounds like a pisser. The owner of Alamo Drafthouse Films (a Texas theatre chain that specializes in reviving artsy/weird/forgotten/indie "B" movies) bought a print of this movie on eBay for fifty bucks and he loved it so much that he tracked down actor/producer Y.K. Kim (who's now a successful motivational speaker and who has spent the last twenty five years trying to forget he ever made this movie), and convinced Kim to sell Alamo the rights to re-release it. Kim spent a million bucks of his own money to make this movie in 1987 (despite a total lack of knowledge about the film business) and it never got played anywhere except one theatre in his hometown of Miami. Now it looks like he's got a cult hit on his hands after all these years.
This trailer is the first look I've had at it, and it looks completely batsh*t insane. That guitar playin' dude looks like John Oates ( ) and that "Against the Ninja" song is irresistible. Must. See. This. Now.
Agreed, fhis does look fucking AWESOME....even if for all the wrong reasons.
