I adored this film as a kid. Still makes me smile to this day.

Same, but it was all about the throwing ... kris? star? and making homemade versions out of cardboard after seeing it. No clue what the rest of the movie is about, probably should re-watch. :)

Pretty shocked this was not remade.

I always love Evil man does action because of a prophecy ends up being the cause of the prophecy.

the remake is in development hell for seemingly decades

So. Bad.

Saw it when it came out and it was cringey even to my young self.

I just watched this the other day. It was a fun watch. Most impressive part was the cyclops actually blinks, least fun part he does die terribley :|
