Okay a movie I could never remember the name of. I could totally descibe it.

5-6 warriors go on a mission I think to avenge there master's death. On the way they fight different types of ninjas. The first group they run into have shiny straw hats and thats like thier special weapon. They fight and shine it in the eyes of the warriors eyes. Well the warriors win go on to the next episode and meet these water ninjas floating in water. They use bambo straws to swim underwater and suprise the warriors and also get thier asses kicked by the warriors. I blank out I think there is other Ninjas with other special moves but i forget. The last episode there is only a couple warriors left. They run into these sand ninjas that jump out of the ground and back into it. So they have to use thier special stilt spears to stab out most of the sand ninjas. When they do finally there is only like 2 warriors left and they have to fight the main leader who's special skill I dunno i forget.

Yea it sounds fruity but it bugs the hell out of me to forget the name of that movie anybody remember it? Anybody that could recomend some good o'l kung fu movies? I'm on vacation and very bored.

I wish I could help you on this one. I know the flick you're talking about because I've seen it. However, I've never seen it from the beginning so I've never seen the title.

hip hop and kung fu flicks go hand and hand. I grew up watching Shaw Brothers movies. This is an easy one......

Was it Gymkata? Maybe not, but maybe Radioactiv can find out, he's the search master...

So 5 Deadly Venoms a good one to huh I may buy both from Amazon for like 5$ bucks a piece. People say the quality isnt great but if your a fan you dont really care about that I guess.

yeah the quality issue is the major reason why I'm not collecting them right now. the bad english dubbing is part of the magic but the video need to improve. a grainy picture can pass on VHS but not on DVD. I own a bunch on VHS but vcr has been packed for years.

be careful what you buy. there are companies remastering the most popular classic movies to dvd (and cheap too) but be aware that some people are just burning from vhs.
