Thread: San Shou on the BIG screen....

  1. #16
    The goal was a modern version of the 70's KF movies so you will get that Bruce Lee look. The trailer makes it look more BL than it is does as a whole. It was very low budget but shot on film. It is good and nice to see a movie done by real martial artists and no special effects at all. The target audiance would be KF movie purists and those sick of the Matrix effect movies.

    Edge of Xanda

    I heard about the Edge project and am glad to see it's coming to fruition. I'll be interested to see it, and interested on your opinions of it. It'll be fun to see those guys as actors.

    As for Xanda, I have our buyer on the look-out for that one in a legal all-region DVD. It's not available yet, but when it is, we'll try to acquire it. Until then, you're stuck with bootlegs or other region discs.

    Yao li, I remember him from back in the day. He was a hot performer. He still looks good. The grittier look in the begining of the trailer applealed to me. The scene where he was bloody mouthed holding the gun on the guy was eye catching. The end with the BL homage got a bit overdone , for me at least.

    My production buds say the camera was shakey and the lighting need to be further tweaked. It could have used a bit more grain and a darker look. But, what da ya want, they are a bit snobish when it comes to film.

    The feel will probably be different with the actual sountrack. The trailer music takes away a little bit from the impact.


    So when is this project going to be released? It seems like an interesting film.

    I didn't say he was a hot EXOTIC performer. Get your mind out of the gutter.

    Thumbs up

    I saw the film at a screening awhile back, its really quite good.
    I definately give it my siscal & ebert 'thumbs up'.
    I was suprised and impressed with what Jason pulled off with the budget and means that he had. He filmed it bandit-style around Boston and managed to make a really cool movie.

    I didnt think it came off as being too 'kung fooey' or a Bruce Lee omage at all, it is actually rather dark. Think more along the lines of 'Reservoir Dogs' than 'Enter the Dragon'.
    Good fight scenes too.

    I'm really psyched this movie may work out for Jason, he's been busting his azz on this film for a long time, and the dude really has some talent. This film is waaay better than the 'B' martial arts movies that we're used to seeing, trust me on this one, I think you guys will like it.
