Story of a mad man using pills that grow plants inside people as a means of taking over a town is a bloody fun evenings viewing, 10 November 2005
8/10
Author: dbborroughs from Glen Cove, New York

This is the story of an evil man who is trying to take over a village by using every underhanded trick in the book. His main means of getting rid of a foe is to use a little red pill that will cause a rapidly growing plant to sprout from your belly and rip you apart.(The pills are suppose to be used by monks for meditation, I don't know how but thats what were told) As the mad man moves towards taking control of the town he runs up against hunky Barry Prima who more than gives him a run for his money.

Sue me, I liked this a great deal. Its got great action, an over the top story, decent special effects and a sense of just how silly it all is that makes it charming. Its a gory action horror film that simply wants to entertain, and it does in spades. The action is well done with both matinée idol Prima and his female co-star kicking major ninja butt. Its a blast and then some.

If you want a no brainer film for an evenings non-taxing viewing this is it. Just be warned that the blood flows freely, so if you're not a fan of the red stuff you may want to be ready to look away.

Absolutely worth a bag of popcorn or two.
