On this month’s episode, we’re taking a look back at 1999’s Bridge of Dragons. In this direct-to-video thriller, Dolph Lundgren plays Warchild, a trained killing machine who falls in love with the princess slated to marry the land’s evil dictator and oppressor (played by the always great Cary Tagawa)! Joining me to chat this film is Ben Johnson, host of the Kung-Fu Move Guide Podcast -- your one-stop shop for all the latest news and interviews regarding martial arts cinema! Where exactly does this film take place? What kind of visual flair does director Isaac Florentine add to the film? How does Lundgren do at revisiting his “mercenary with a heart” character archetype? And in what ways will this film forever be linked to the Power Rangers? Join Ben and I as we discuss the fantasy-post apocalyptic amalgam that is Bridge of Dragons!
