Five Stars for My Dad

My father was cast in this movie as Siciliano, which is his real name Warren Siciliano. His primary occupation was in martial arts which he developed the style called Karado Karate. I was very young when he shot this movie and I was thrilled to meet most of the stars in it. A couple of tidbits: The Lincoln Mark 4 used in the movie was his personal car, the car I used when I first learned to drive. He also instructed the actors how to fight in the fight scenes. The woman who flipped the bodyguard in the swamp and some of Chris Robinson's moves as well. He passed away on October 31, 1976
