Hot Potato Gone Cold
I was channel surfing a couple of days ago looking for something interesting to watch. Then I saw this retro movie being shown and just by the looks of the set and actors I knew it's one of those B grade kinda movie. You can always tell a B grade movie a mile away.
I don't know why but I find myself drawn to B grade movies. The acting and story lines are totally foolish and comical, yet I'm still glued to watching those atrocious acting (enough to make you cry at times!) LOL!
Now this particular movie was called Hot Potato. With a title like that, it's hard for me to resist the kind of acting they would serve... and I was proven right. I'm still amazed I actually watched the whole movie, all excruciating 88 minutes of it. It felt more like 88 hours!
I did some googling and I found out that it was filmed in 1976. The story is about a Martial-arts expert and his sidekick in an adventure to rescue an ambassador's daughter who was kidnapped in Thailand. The acting is really bad, the fight scenes are just the kick and punch kinda type and being repeated over and over throughout the movie. There are some 'juicy' moments with the hero and heroine seen frolicking in a river but in a cheesy kinda way.
Check out the movie's advertisement poster. So, when are you gonna catch this show? ![]()
