| Fist Of Fear Touch Of Death (1979) Cast:Fred Williamson,Bill Louie,Aaron Willamson,Sid Caesar Sometimes movies are made in honor of an idol and sometimes they just insult the viewers intellegence and Fist Of Fear is in the latter category. Sid Caesar and a couple of martial artists ponder the death blow that could have killed Bruce Lee, while trying to find a replacement for Bruce Lee. I can't even explain how mind bogglingly awful Fist Of Fear Touch Of Death is.The worst part is how it insults the intellegence of the viewer who has even mildly enjoyed a Bruce Lee movie. We hear Bruce Lee's grandpa was a samurai.(The fact that samurais were from Japan and Bruce Lee is Chinese not withstanding) Just adds to the overall stupidity. Oh and then we get footage of Bruce Lee explaining to his mother that he beats people up because of his tradition of his samurai grandfather, what makes this movie so unbelievably bad is that this footage is shot like a soap opera and is then spliced in with a bad samurai movie. Actually I take that back the samurai movie maybe indeed good but taken in this direction it just shows adds up to the overall futile surroundings. Williamson is wasted, the tournament footage is lackluster and the Bill Louie cameo is just unbelievably stupid. This is without a doubt the worst movie I've ever seen. So if given a choice between throwing yourself out of a window or watching this movie, I must say that throwing yourself out a window is the less painful choice. If you see this movie anyway well, don't say I didn't warn you. D. Jasper Milktoast (I'm not making this up!) NO STARS |
