Stickfighter-Movie Review?

[baronv]

Has anyone seen the 1989 movie Stickfighter featuring Roland Dantes, Dean Stockwell & Nancy Kwan. I'm thinking of getting it but don't know if it's any good. Does it have any good escrima scenes?

How, When, and Where?

That movie is hard to come by!!!!

Is it true that GM Remy Presas has a cameo?

I haven't seen it, but here's what I just posted in another thread, including a plot synopsis (I hope it's not bad form to repost it here ... apologies if so ...):


------------------------------------
I just found another Roland Dantes movie on yahoo: 'Stickfighter' from 1989. The synopsis sounds fun:

"An evil Spanish governor of the Philippines has his son tutored in the deadly martial arts by a wicked samurai. But when a new hero, the world's foremost expert in the art of stickfighting arrives, their oppressive rule is challenged."

Wish I could find this one ...

Hopefully you can post a review of both movies after you've watched them.
