Amputee Kung Fu

From the file marked “WTF?!” this week comes this fight scene. I don’t even know which movie it’s from. I have no idea where this clip is from. Maybe part of its charm is the fact that we don’t know anything about it. It looks like an early 90s movie from Hong Kong. Beyond that, I... »

Kung Fu vs Yoga

Kung Fu vs Yoga

When an irresistable martial art meets an immovable form of meditation, only one can win – KUNG FU VERSUS YOGA. The clip you’re about to see is from a martial arts movie from the 70s called “Kung Fu vs Yoga“. Some of the action is absolutely mind-boggling in its complexity and contortionism.

Hong Kong has churned out an unbelievable amount of martial arts movies since the 1970s. Thankfully, Honk Kong has made an unbelievable amount of bad martial arts movies since the 1970s.

Had I discovered the best bad movie of all time? The narrative of this God-awfully bad movie follows the recently-deceased Bruce Lee, who finds... »

Black Dynamite

Blaxploitation films of the 1970s have a lot to answer for in terms of clichés created or perpetuated by them. Now we can bask in their ridiculousness. “Black Dynamite” is an upcoming spoof of these movies starring Michael Jai White as the titular character – a former CIA agent, and all round bad mofo, who... »

The Calamari Wrestler

The Calamari Wrestler

Who said Japanese movies were weird?! Imagine if “Rocky” wasn’t set in Philadelphia. Imagine it was set in Japan. And imagine that instead of having a slurring idiot as the lead, imagine it was a seven foot tall squid. Imagine no more, for “The Calamari Wrestler” is here. I’m a huge fan of pro wrestling as much... »
