Hahaha, I'm sorry, but that looks like it will be terrible!
I'll probably see it for the comedic value and to spot Edmonton sights, but that's about it. |

I know a guy who worked on this production. He said it is probably the worst movie he has ever seen. It has cars and bitches, but he said the cars are weak and so are the women. The only thing that was going for it was sex scenes but they suck.
They're basically putting a hot chick on the DVD cover and sending it to rental shops, to make money off the lonely. |

I am actually partners with a couple of them in other ventures.
Edit : Wait a minute........ I just saw the trailer. I just realized I know the lead actor. :confused:
Christian Mena......... He had a band in town ....went to NY and actually was a lead in a broadway play. The musical/play was here a couple of years back at the Jubilee...... can't remember the name for the life of me?
Go figure.

Justin Harp is a wounded man. He just lost his mother in a car accident that crippled his father, and now his little sister, Heaven, has run away. His world is crumbling away before his eyes and there is nothing he can do to stop it. But when he finds out Heaven has been caught up in the dangerous underground club scene, his fire is rekindled. He's got to find her, save her from the clutches of the evil crime boss, and bring her home safely. She's the only hope he has left. With the guidance of his old martial arts mentor, Frank, he is propelled on a journey into a dark underworld, sexy and sinister, mysterious and foreboding, to rescue his sister, his family, and the last of his hope.
:lol:
Sorry man. I'm going to stay as far away from this one as I can. |

I can't get over the name of his old martial arts mentor, Frank,
Could you imagine watching the original Kung Fu.
'When you can take this rock from me, grasshoppa, then you will be ready.'
'Your Kung Fu is weak, Frank.' |
