Taiwan Noir 24: Mars Men & Superriders Against The Devils

20 January 2017 knetan PODCASTS, Taiwan Noir 01:47:27 0 Comments

The Asian film industry of the mid 70s was infused with the spirit of sharing–or, at least, borrowing. And often without permission. One of the results of this was a series of incredibly strange hybrid superhero films that were just as likely to include figures from Thai folklore as they were mad scientists and damsels in distress. In this episode therefore we’ll be discussing two of these pan-Asian franken-films, Mars Men and Superriders Against The Devils.

General Guan Yu battles aliens from Mars. Interested yet?

3 May 2010 knetan PODCASTS, Japan On Fire, Interviews 0 Comments

KEN’S EDIT:Excuse my misidentification of who does the stunt in No Regret, No Return. It’s apparently Sam Wong (who fought Jackie at the beginning of Police Story III).
