June 29: Junesploitation’s topic of the day — as suggested by F This Movie— is ‘80s Action!

Years ago, Jack Maraccio (Anthony East) killed the parents of Mark Quinn (Rom Kristoff). Mark didn’t grow up to be Batman. No, he’s a cop and working with his partner Ty Jackson (Jim Moss), he’s keeping the Philippines safe.

Imagine if you took Rambo: First Blood Part II, Rocky and Cobra, threw them in a cup with raw eggs and drank it before running up some steps and blowing things up. That’s this movie, which has a cover that looks just like Marion Cobretti, which was totally an accident and no one meant for it to look that way. Nor did they intend for Jim Gaines’ pimp character named Sly to make you think of anyone else by that name. As for our hero, Kristoff never takes his glasses off, was raised by a ninja and is now a ninja himself, something Stallone never did.

This was directed and written by Teddy Page, who also made Fireback, Jungle Rats, Blazing Guns and so many more movies like this before using the name Teddy Chuck as a first assistant director for movies like The Love Nights of Anthony and Cleopatra (Hakkan Serbes is in that and if you got excited, you’re a pervert), Samson in the Amazon’s Land, Raiders, Sodoma & Gomorra and Showgirl. Yes, Joe D’Amato adult films. I would call that making it.
