American International Pictures
Directed by Cesar Gallardo
My rating: BOMB
IMDb
(DVD, Shout! Factory)
An American couple in Hong Kong on their honeymoon is used to smuggle something to Manila without their knowledge. Hidden in a cheap Buddha statue, it is intensely desired by a man who believes he can control the world with it. However, when he finally gets the statue it is empty. So, he kidnaps the man's wife and demands to get a "pouch" with the secret power. It finally turns up by accident, but its contents surprise everyone. Absolutely dreadful Filipino production with amateur acting, pointless nudity, uninspired fighting and unfunny comic relief. It might fall into the "so bad it's good" category, especially the 70s fashions, but even that is a stretch.
