Kickboxer (Jean Claude Van Damme) 1989
1 of 1 found this helpful This movie was made in 1989 on vhs, and is now out on dvd format. The movie was directed by Mark DiSalle and David Worth. And the story line plot, was also written by, Mark DiSalle and Jean Claude Van Damme, who also stars in the main title role in the film as well. Jean Claude Van Damme plays Kurt Sloane who observes that his brother is outmatched in this fight against Tong Po. Kurt Sloane also tried to stop the kickboxing fight by throwing in the towel, but Tong Po would not stop fighting until his brother Eric was critically injured and paralyzed by Tong Po played by Michael Qissi(who is also a childhood friend of Jean Claude Van Damme and starred in several movies with the action star)in a kickboxing tournament in Bangkok, Thailand. Kurt Sloane trains with Xian Chow a famous Thailand kickboxer in Muay Thai and teaches Kurt Sloane how to fight properly in the kickboxing tournament. Not a great film but on the other hand not a bad one either. Definately worth watching. The cast of the movie Kurt Sloane - Jean Claude Van Damme Tong Po - Michael Qissi Eric Sloane - Dennis Alexio (just a brief note there would be four more movies with the title Kickboxer in them)

Tripping The Rift Movie DVD (Funtastic Five Stars)
0 of 1 found this helpful "Tripping The Rift" is a Science Fiction CGI film comedy series, that was on the Sci- Fi cable television channel, for a three year run. It engages in parodies and spoofs of movie films and television, from Star Trek to Star Wars and 2001 A Space Odyssey, Adam 12, Logan's Run, just to name a few of the movies and televison movies that were spoofed. The main characters are "Captain Chode McBlob" (voiced by Stephan Root)(a short purple with lime green spots alien looking, four armed tenacled, three eyed, type alien species), "Gus the robot engineer" (voiced by Maurice LaMarche)(a gold colored robot with a very unique shape and voice pattern), "Bob the spaceship" Named "Jupiter 42" (voiced by John Melendez)(of Howard Stern fame), "Six of Nine the science officer" (season one - Gina Gershon)(season two - Carmen Electra)(season three - Jenny MacCarthy) A Humaniod Android, "TNuk Layor the pilot" (voiced by Gayle Garfinkle) a very ugly (Just think a talking ox but a very, very ugly talking ox, with four arms and bad acne), and to round it all off "Whip is the ship's foreman" (voiced by Rick Jones) a green reptilian humuniod looking teen aged alien,Including a repeating cast of misfits and Federation Officers such as "Darph Bobo the supreme dark clown" (voiced by Terrace Scammell), "Captain Adam of the Confederation Fleet" (voice by Stephan Root) Along with his son Adam 12. These are the far out zany outerspace exploits and crazy and wild adventures of the crew of Jupiter 42, as they space travel through the universe, and getting into hilarious and troublesome treks in each episode in outer space. And along the way they come across every known alien species and then some. Only Six is human looking but she is a android. Gus ia a gold finished robot. Captain Chode is a small three eyed purple alien with four rounded tentacles on his head, and lime green spots on his body. Whip is a green reptilian looking humanoid and a teenager. TNuk is a two armed quadrupedal alien with such a grotesque appearance but to her she is beautiful beyond belief. To watch these zany wild and crazy episodes will make you laugh all night long. And you will see alot of the parody that they get their sources from, such as Deep Space Nine, Star Trek, Star Wars, Roswell, Lost in Space, Logan's Run, Adam 12, Footloose, I am Robot, the News topics, just to name a few of them. In the opening sequence Gus has a vacuum cleaner, that looks a lot like R2D2 from Star Wars, and Whip is flying around a radio controlled Star Trek Enterprise, and as the camera rolls around you see the back of TNuk's chair that looks like the monolith from 2001 A Space Odessey. A fantastic CGI animated series, with loads of great fun, and lots of laughs, all throughout the films. The first season 13 episodes and the second season 13 episodes plus a movie are availible. Season three had 13 episodes. Enjoy, I do, they are a outerspace blast of laughs.Season Four was put on hold at this time, but lots of people really enjoyed this spoof on lots of movies and televison shows. I really hope to see Season Four in the near future. Really fun shows, that were very original and unique in its own way of thought through comedy.
