    That was painfully amateurish. It looks like it had a budget of ?10.
    I hear Stallone is making a fifth Rambo film this year. The last one was very violent, and not bad.
    The trouble with tribbles is.......

    I'm just left wondering why did the rockets pop off the end of the launcher like a spud gun, why did they only cause small fires, and who left them lying all over the place for him to keep picking them up.

    Also since when has a cut or burn to the left eyebrow ever been so lethal :lol:

    If it was so deadly I'd have been dead before my age hit double figures :lol:

    Where is he getting all those RPGs from....I see he fires off about 10 but surely those bulges in his outfit are muscles and not RPGs?

    I loved the way the PRG "fired"; they clearly didn't care about it looking especially real.

    Did anyone else think the villain at the end who "Rambo" beat-up with the RPG-launcher looked like a mixture of Vincent Price and Josef Fritzl?

    Nah, I'm not a very good one-handed typist ;)

    Only messes I've made of keyboards have been booze or fire related :D

    Although my first ever keyboard from my first ever PC was loaded with enough rocky to make a couple of spliffs with, me and my auld muckers popped all the keys out of it when I bought a new keyboard. I'm not surprised it wasn't working too well hahaha! There was actually half a Rizla packet inside the actual keyboard when we unscrewed it as well.

    Which is weird because I'm a Green Zig-Zag man myself :D

    That video was top comedy. If you listen carefully, you can notice that they obviously only had a basic audio mixing kit, as every time a gun was fired, or there was an explosion, the music had to stop.

    yeah i read about the turkish film industry in an issue of dvd world, they are all low budget, normally rip offs of big name films (rambo, spiderman, superman, wizard of oz etc) but are completely off the wall, normally involve the goodies doing drugs and gay sex and stuff.
    i wanna check some out (without buying up front) so if anybody finds any (english language/subtitles) ones for download let me know, ive been looking, found one but its in turkish and has no subs :(

    Peruvian Horror movies are pretty hilarious too, I had one on a VHS back home called "The killing of Satan", it was awful, and satan really did have a red jumpsuit, red horns, a goatee, and a pitchfork.

    I'm going to look for it on pootube now :D

    EDIT: and here it is, not quite as ridiculous as I remember, but still pretty poop :lol:



    haha!

    Actually, can someone translate please and explain to me what the fuck that woman was saying at the end - the woman who just pops up out of nowhere after the 6 minutes of extreme "carnage".

    Sure, I'll try with my limited english:

    it seems like a flashback. Maybe Rambo remembers his love, or she might be a ghost, looking down to us from heaven etc:

    Woman: "Here I die in peace. From now on, all the people living on planet earth, don't have to live in a dark world like mine. I wish they all live in a world full of joy and happiness."

    and Turkish Rambo kills the bad guy, full of hatred and revenge!!

    The end.

    Those are Turkish B films, produced for video in 80's big social madness. I don't know what kind of people is the maker of this kind of films, but I know a "Killing" copy, named "Kilink" directed by Yılmaz Atadeniz. The film has disturbing(and funny) nationalist propaganda, despite the fact it's a fantasy film and utterly nonsense.

    Turkish cinema were in decline in late 70's until new millenium. Before that period there was a real "Turkish cinema" roots from the country's aspects, and takes it's plot from problems of society, especially migration, unequal distribution of money, feudal system and village life.

    by the way, if you still haven't, go and watch "The Man Who Saves the World".The film was wrongly titled by americans as "Turkish Star Wars". Well, it's not totally wrong because the film uses parts of starwars footage.. If you can watch this movie till the end, you'll earn a "medal of patience" from me.
    good luck.

    Yeah, I've seen some of that. It's pretty shameless stuff, not only ripping off loads of Star Wars footage but pinching music from the Indiana Jones films.

    Am I right in thinking that stuff like The Man Who Saves The World was the result of a junta taking power in Turkey and foreign films being officially banned or restricted meaning that the Turkish film industry had to try and compensate?
