Well it’s a New Year and Let us all make 2014 better than
2013. I have since moved on from the fire as many of you know that I have been
attending screenings at the Alamo Drafthouse for their events and special
screenings and these are always a trip, particularly the AGFA Secret
Screenings.
After encountering many old Frightmare Friends we went into
the screening where James Wallace went into detail of the film before it was
revealed talking about this film having Zombies, Martial Arts , and many naked
women making this film one of the greatest Pilipino Exploitation films and then
I realized what this film was…
It was Raw Force aka Kung Fu Cannibals.
Released in 1982 Raw Force follows ill fated in which a
small group of tourists which includes a Martial Arts team, and a female Swat
Team captian plan to stop at Warrior Island to see the Monks.
When this plan comes to the attention of a local group of
Sex Traffickers who have been exchanging women for Jade stones that are
plentiful on the island they seek out to destroy them.
After a wild party the pirates sink the ship and make off
with one of the tourists with the intention to sacrifice her. All that remains
is a small group of 8 survivors who after landing on the island have to face
off against the Traffickers, The monks and many Zombies of past warriors and
they also have to save the trafficked women before they are cannibalized by the
monks.
This flick is everything that you think it is and this flick
was a rare treat since it was a rare 35mm print of the film that has barely received
a full DVD release and there are still a
fex copies of the film floating around on that VHS market so as a result a
decent print of the film is a rare find.
Now the film is a cheesy as it gets and if you are a fan of
the exploitation genre this flick is for you.
Look for I Spit on your Grave star Camille Keaton and Return
of the Living Dead star Jewel Sheppard during the party scene.
Also the footage of the Piranhas is infact Stock Footage
from the 1978 film Piranha.
