In this episode, we dive into the world of Karate Kill, a martial arts soaked revenge tale with strong grindhouse vibes. The film follows Kenji, a mysterious loner and Karate master, whose little sister goes missing in Los Angeles. Determined to find her, Kenji embarks on a relentless quest, facing off against anyone who stands in his way.

Karate Kill offers plenty of action, colourful characters, and wild bloodshed. We explore the film's unique blend of martial arts and exploitation elements, discussing its impact on the genre and its reception among audiences. Join us as we dissect the thrilling fight sequences, delve into the film's themes, and analyse the performances of the cast.

Joining me today is the wandering ronin himself, Matthew Essary, a fellow connoisseur of the sleazier action movie.
