Karate kickin' midgets... paper-mache monsters... bust babes with blades... Join us for a non-stop Filipino femme-fest, all the way from the jungles of the Pacific via the trash cans of the critics! Boasting cheap labour, exotic scenery and non-existent health and safety regulations, The Philippines was a dreamland for exploitation auteurs whose renegade productions were soon engulfing drive-in screens around the globe like a tidal schlock-wave! This is the ultimate insiders account of a far away backlot where stuntmen came cheap, plot was obsolete - and the make-up guy was packin' heat! (Umbrella Entertainment)
