Prey of the Jaguar (1996)
Member Rating:  
In this low-budget action adventure, a former Special Operations agents becomes a mysterious crime fighter to avenge the slaughter of his beloved family by the fugitive convicts he sent to prison. He and his family were living under assumed names and believed they were safe. But despite the warnings of his former superior Derek Leigh could not save them. Two detectives show up, but Leigh will not talk to them. It is while looking at his son's simple drawing of a super hero that Leigh decides to don a costume and get the bad guys himself. Wearing a leotard, boots, a mask and painting his face to resemble the title cat, he begins brushing up on martial arts and lifting weights. He then arms himself with assorted darts, throwing stars and arrows all dipped in a special sleeping potion. Once ready, the Jaguar sets off for revenge leaving a trail of dart covered sleeping bodies. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

This movie is really hard to watch. VERY bad acting. The cover is also misleading, the main character looks more like a Power Ranger.

Fans of David DeCoteau movies will be familiar with the cheap sets and bad acting (Maxwell Caulfield is surprisingly bad in this one). Unlike most DeCoteau films, however, there is little male skin to enjoy--the main reason most people would watch a DeCoteau movie. At best, this movie can be appreciated as a cheap parody of the Karate Kid movies. There are also a couple of shirtless scenes for Caulfield, but otherwise there is little going for this movie. For most of the action portion of the movie, Caulfield is dressed in a silly, cheap costume. As it is, I don't see any audience for this movie: the action is silly, the production cheap, and the shirtless scenes for Caulfield few and far between.
