Anthony, a nice but naive kid with a smart mouth gets more than he can handle when visiting his estranged father in the Philippines. Before they even meet, he's mugged and beaten, but that doesn't get his spirit down! He meets a nice girl and gets on the bad side of Quino, a local thug who extorts money from local businesses! Quino also happens to be a fighting champion in the ring! The whole town is scared of him, but not Anthony! That is...until he gets the crap beat out of him several times. With the help of an ex master in the arts of karate, he will face Quino in the ring for revenge and justice! While it may sound similar to a certain Ralph Macchio series this movie benefits from a faster pace, great locals, exciting motorcycle stunts, ultra violent fighting, and a great supporting cast including Janet Agren! More than enough to spawn four sequels in fact!
