Title: Unknown bad movie... Post by: geekboy on December 21, 2008, 11:01:01 PM A friend and I were talking about bad movies we've seen, and I described to him a scene from one of the worst movies I've ever seen, but I cannot recall the name of the movie, nor the name of anyone in it. I saw it at least 10 years ago.
The scene I am talking about in this waste of cellulose starts out with our hero on top of a rather tall building and bad guys in a helicopter trying to kill him. He jumps over the side of the building and twists in mid-air so that he is facing the building, and jams his fingers into a slot around one of the windows, preventing his falling god only knows how far to the ground below. He then begins working his way around the building using nothing but his fingertips in the slots. Meanwhile, the guy in the helicopter, who has the side door of the helicopter open, begins shooting at our hero. He misses him, but our hero is forced to let go of his grip on the building, and he drops several stories into a window washer platform. The bad guy in the helicopter starts shooting at him again, but continues to miss. So then the bad guy aims and fires at one of the ONE INCH cables holding up the window washer platform and nails it on the first attempt, even though 20 seconds earlier he could not hit a target the size of a full grown man. The platform starts swinging back and forth, and our hero grabs one of the cables and then, I kid you not, he does a Tarzan swing and lands INSIDE the helicopter, ignoring the fact that at the angle he entered the helicopter, the cable would have been hit by the helicopter's blade, either snapping the cable or winding it around the blade, sending the whole mess to the ground in flames. Our hero fights with the gunman in the helicopter and they both eventually fall out and plunge at least 75 feet, crashing through the roof of a greenhouse and slamming into the ground. The bad guy is killed, but our hero gets up and walks away with barely a scratch. Anyone know what movie this is in? Title: Re: Unknown bad movie...

They were typically kung-fu films but he released several straight-up action flicks, some even had primarly caucasian actors. Title: Re: Unknown bad movie...
