An international crime organization that has murder, kidnapping, slavery and extortion among their repetoire have made Bruce Le their main target. But Bruce is on a mission of his own – to crush the group and their hired assassins!
Bruce (Bruce Le) and Ron (Hwang Jang Lee) are buddies that are working for an Italian mob boss. Bruce gets put in jail during a mission. Upon being released, he tells Ron he no longer wants to be a part of the mob. The mob and Ron then turn against him.
Meanwhile, a ninja gang in Hong Kong (also connected with the mob) kills Bruce’s father, kidnaps his sister (along with the ambassador’s daughter) and puts her in a prostitution ring.
If anything, GOD ’78 should have been like this, LOL! So, so low budget, just as “Fist of Fear, Touch of Death.” Lots of nude white girls – even the ambassador’s daughter gets naked. The fight scenes are cheap and let’s not mention the finale (The x-rays of Hwang Jang Lee’s insides are cartoon drawings).
This movie is recommended for a good laugh.
Goldenfist’s Rating: 5.5/10
