Return of Red Tiger (1980)
Nomination Year: 2009
SYNOPSIS: A valuable microfilm containing... um, never mind. Let's start
again. A valuable microfilm containing valuable information has
been stolen from... Okay, no. A valuable microfilm containing
valuable information has been stolen from someone by... Sorry, this
just is not working. Anyway, two rival organized crime groups are
after this microfilm, which seems to involve kidnapping a female
nightclub singer. Unluckily for them, the nightclub singer is being
wooed -- okay, stalked -- by a supremely annoying mute mentally ill
homeless guy, played by Bruce Le. Fortunately (?) for the singer,
her creepy stalker is a master martial artist with a knack for showing
up just as the mob guys are about to kidnap her and rescuing her (i.e.,
kidnapping her himself). Fortunately, Bruce may be mute and creepy,
but he's got Tiger Fu... okay, it's more like Pissed Off Kitten Fu, as
it seems to primarily involve crawling around on the ground on all
fours while meowing (you think I'm kidding!). Nonetheless, it allows
him to defeat both rival mobs, while the girl and her boyfriend sneak
off into the sunset with the microfilm. Me ow. And if you watch this
movie, you ow, too.
