When a high-class call girl witnesses a brutal murder with the potential to shake the police department, the state department, and the entire criminal underworld, it's up to two rival cops to see that she survives at all costs in this bullet-riddled action entry starring Fred Williamson, Gary Busey, and Don "The Dragon" Wilson. The most powerful men in the city have committed what they thought was the perfect crime - but there was a lone witness to their diabolical misdeed. This isn't your typical mob hit, but an assassination that has the potential to implicate some of the most powerful men in the city. Tyler and Yordan are two cops that have never seen eye to eye. Now, in order to ensure that this crucial piece of evidence not be snuffed out in a hail of gunfire, Tyler and Yordan must work together to protect their witness from a virtual army of assassins. Trust isn't a strong point with these two policemen, however, and in addition to keeping their charge out of the crosshairs the pair must constantly keep up their guards lest one of them turns out to be the informant who seems to be tipping off the triggermen to their every move. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Screen vets Don "The Dragon" Wilson (Batman Forever, Stealing Harvard) and Bokeem Woodbine (Jason's Lyric, Sniper 2) appear in the chop socky spoof 18 Fingers of Death!, alongside James Lew and Karate Kid mainstay, the late Noriyuki "Pat" Morita. This zany send-up of Asian martial arts films concerns Buford (Lew), a weathered and worn big-screen action star who hits a wall when the big shots axe production on his latest (and most promising) vehicle. Soon, Buford finds himself in the humiliating position of standing on a street corner holding a cardboard sign to advertise himself as available for kung fu work. With no other options in sight, he must wage a martial-arts war to enact vengeance on his producers. Star Lew directs, from his own original script. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Originally titled Bloodfist VIII: Trained to Kill, but released as Hard Way Out, this low-budget, martial arts actioner was filmed entirely in Ireland.

Unfortunately, his secrets are exposed when renegade agents decide it's time to "eliminate" him. With only his hands, feet, and superior knowledge of martial arts, the instructor is forced to defend himself and his son from certain death. The film's climactic fight is a battle to the death aboard a ship. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Director Joel Schumacher inherited the Batman franchise from Tim Burton and began steering it in the campier direction of the Sixties television show with this third installment. First-time Batman/Bruce Wayne (Val Kilmer), in his only outing as the Caped Crusader, is effectively brooding as he ponders strange dreams about his parents' death and escapes his own near-demise at the hands of Two-Face (Tommy Lee Jones), a former district attorney driven insane and turned into a master criminal when a gangster throws acid in his face. Meanwhile, as sexy psychologist Chase Meridian (Nicole Kidman) tries to analyze and seduce both Bruce Wayne and Batman, Wayne Enterprises employee Edward Nygma (Jim Carrey) reacts badly to getting fired, using his self-invented mind-energy device to transform into the super-intelligent Riddler. The Riddler teams up with Two-Face to bring down Batman and drain the minds of Gotham City residents with his device, while Batman gets some much-needed help in the form of circus performer Dick Grayson (Chris O'Donnell), out for vengeance after being orphaned by Two-Face. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi

Don "The Dragon" Wilson from the Bloodfist series is back in another Roger Corman-produced action film. Here, he uses his martial-arts prowess to defend rock-and-roll singer Shanna (Deirdre Imershein) from a vicious serial killer (Mathias Hues). It's filled with stock characters like the "corrupt record producer" (Richard Beymer of Twin Peaks), and the killer is, naturally, a deranged Vietnam veteran. Never one to let a successful idea rest, Corman let director Charles Phillip Moore remake this in the Philippines as Angel of Destruction the same year, as well as funding a sequel, Blackbelt 2: Fatal Force. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi
