Hollywood special effects legend Steve Wang’s debut Super 8 film “Kung Fu Rascals” includes hours of bonus features, such as commentaries, rare BTS footage, and a new feature-length documentary on the making of the film.
For the first time ever on Blu-ray, Steve Wang’s 1992 Super 8 cult classic is being released by Visual Vengeance this October.
When their village is threatened by an ancient dark lord known as The Bamboo Man, a master thief and his two sidekicks steal a map and set off on a quest to find the only superpower in the land big enough to save their home and rid the world of evil. But these Rascals will have to kick, punch and fart their way through every ninja, monster and mutant in sight before they can restore peace.
A frantic, eccentric and loving homage to Asian cinema in all its forms, Kung Fu Rascals is part old-school chop-socky movie, Kaiju flick and Power Rangers episode rolled into one. The directorial debut from legendary Hollywood special effects artist Steve Wang (The Monster Squad, Predator, The Guyver, Drive), this Super 8 epic showcases both his monster make-up mastery and sharp action movie sensibilities.
