Will I watch it again? Yes!
Boy, was this a blast! The opening scene sells the shit out of what is to come (watch the above clip). This picture is cheesy fun like few others. I'm definitely going to watch this again but next time it'll be with friends and liquor. For a low budget movie that hardly anyone has probably even heard of, it's actually well made. The fight scenes are well choreographed and edited with precision. They're done better than a lot of Hollywood flicks. Peter O'Brian (as Rambu) just kills it with his physicality and stunt fighting skills. And this guy's physique and presence are very good. Along with the big hair, he's frequently looking like Stallone's Rambo which adds to the fun. There's a little nudity (yay) and lots of kills (yay, yay), it moves briskly and it's a lot of fun. If you dig the opening scene, just wait until about halfway through the picture when you get to the auto rickshaw & dirt bike fight scene. WOW!!! It's low budget in the way DEADLY PREY (1987) and FOR Y'UR HEIGHT ONLY (1981) are and just as fun to watch. Find it and enjoy yourself.
