Mst-3k vol.2
Hallmark of the initial Mst-3k show. Pod People, Cave Dwellers and Angels Revenge mark the start of how big the show was about to become in the early 1990's.
I purchesed this particular one not only becasue of the other movies in this 4 disc set, but mostly because of the one titled "Pod People". It was the very first MST-3K episode I'd ever seen long ago in 1991 and what initially attracted me to the series and endless hours of recording each continueing episode until the series ended in 1997. A long time I had waited until seeing this particular episode again and in it's entirety.

Excellent movie for the true martial arts enthusiast !!
1 of 1 found this helpful Another great eighties sci-fi/ martial arts film written by the legendary Bruce Lee and co-starring none other than David Carradine of the Kung Fu series. Here, he plays a blind kung fu master who secretly aids a post-apocalyptic barbarian that goes by the name of Chord. Chord tells his Kung Fu friend that he's after "The Book of Ultimate Enlightenment" rumored by several others to have never existed, yet he still finds himself compelled to search for it. along the way, David Carribbean's character secretly teaches the warrior little known facts about the zen side of things while leading him to the place where the secret book is kept.
Favorite part: Carradine is stopped by a boy who sticks out his arm demanding a fare for safe passage. Carradine, who is blind mind you, senses the boy's presence and slaps him in the face before moving on. Chord stops him a while later, demanding to know why he had done such a thing, to which he replies " He would have grown to be a tyrant. His parents were being manipulated by his beauty and so I freed them from it." Alot of zen sayings and traces of Taoist philosophy come out in this film. A true asset to those who also seek their own personal enlightenment. This can definately be said to have been an excellent example of Bruce Lee's work. Alot of his own personal beliefs about the martial arts also seem to come out of this one, which becomes very apparent when Chord faces his first trial against the warrior who tries to use monkey kung fu on him. I'm not going to spoil it for you by saying anymore, you'll just have to see for yourself : ) enjoy.

Fit of the North Star
I have to say, if it weren't for the live action movie-I would have never known about the animated one...which I'll amit had alot more plot, yet somehow less feeling.
I guess I just liked this one better, although the animated one was alot more powerful. In that, he's walking through buildings as if they were nothing and his eyes are glowing. Plus a few extra characters almost as powerful as he is. One for example "Ray" I believe his name was, who had the ability to wave his fingers in front of anything and slice it to ribbons.
The multiple punching, head popping, school of the North Star plot is still a winning formula for the live action movie.
First and only scene that made me want to own this years ago: a thug's jaw being kicked to the other side of his head before he passes out, an automatic pistol being cut in half by lightening fast hands, several rapid punches being shot out seemingly all at once up until the last hit forms two fingers touching the biggest thug's forehead. " What are ya trying to do, tickle me to death?" The thug speaks. The hero turns to walk away. " Don't turn your back on me!" The thug hollar. " You are all ready dead" The hero replies...just a few seconds before the thug's head begins to expand and explode from the North Star thousand cracked fist technique was used on him. The hero walks away and into the wasteland.
What on Earth is this? I thought as I hit the menu option to see what the title was during the summer of 1996. I hit record just to keep in mind and hunt for it to come on again so i could tape the whole thing.
