How the crap did I never see this film?? It looks awesome!!!!!! Cool to see Billy Blanks as a janitor-turn-martial-arts-sensei! Lets do this.
i do like the MVD releases, even if the ‘customer service’ could be a tad better…
And I hope they reach out to Kenn Scott, Billy Blanks and Pat Kilpatrick for the special features
Oh man! I can’t believe they’re releasing the movie that was filmed at my high school! (Paradise Valley was not operating at the time, so it was easy to film there.
It was a shame only one of my classmates knew or cared about how historic our ground was. Lol
Basically a rip off of Karate Kid from what I recall seeing it 25+ years ago on VHS.
Hey, No Retreat No Surrender is a rip-off of the Karate Kid … I say no more!!!
Gotta love those 28-year-old high school students …
