In this day and age, if there is ever a chance for director Michael Schultz’s immortal kung fu soul classic, Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon to be remade for millenials, I don’t think it would live to tell the tale unless the right director and crew were on it. The film is such a treasure to the niche it is meant for and now we have a forthcoming repackaged and brand-spanking new version of the film arriving on Blu-Ray in late August. SYNOPSIS: Celebrate thirty years of BERRY GORDY’S THE LAST DRAGON, now fully remastered in high definition on Blu-ray. Martial arts student Leroy Green (Taimak) is on a quest to obtain the elusive all-powerful force known as “The Glow.” Along the way he must battle the evil, self-proclaimed Shogun of Harlem – a kung fu warrior also known as Sho’nuff (Julius J. Carry III) – and rescue a beautiful […]
New Yorkers and fans around the country have their own respective events often in celebration of specific classic titles in the martial arts genre, and director Michael Schultz‘s 1985 cult classic, The Last Dragon, is no exception. Old heads are keen to understanding just how big a deal this movie is and the role it played in propelling the kung fu genre into America’s cinematic subculture with fans lending their own affinity for the legendary story of young Harlemite Leroy Green and his arduous journey in search of “the glow” and the power it wields. The film was once up for a remake which doesn’t appear to be happening anytime soon from the way things appear so far, and it’s safe to say a lot of people are satisfied with that. Actor Taimak‘s iconic leading role is one he still celebrates to this day among the likes of other cast […]
Cult martial arts film star Taimak Guarriello is still in touch with his fanbase decades after gaining the spotlight with the Berry Gordy-produced 1985 neon-laden fantasy action kung fu classic, The Last Dragon. The film is still subject to massive expo and comic-con appeal with a surge in energy that still draws crowds to this day, even at its roots in New York City where the actor has appeared among other favorites stars at the Urban Action Showcase & Expo, and now, the movement continues to bring the glow to your city.
