feature all of the Snob's videos, old and new, and also brand new shows and full length original movies for those of us who already can't get enough of Z-Grade Cinema.

Great review, Brad. The wrong video in the box reminds me of my Sandy Nelson "Teen Beat" LP that mistakenly has Rick Nelson's "Million Sellers" LP in it with side 2 having the Sandy Nelson side 2 label, lol! I'm curious, are you going to review any movies with Lorenzo Lamas in them? There were a ton of them in the 80s and early to mid 90s that he was in that were just as bad as anything Pierre Kirby was in. I would love to see you review Mask Of Death, Night Of The Warrior, or one of the 3 Snake Eater films. Oh and lets not forget CIA Codename: Alexa and CIA II: Target Alexa. All done in the 80s and early 90s. All bad and cheesy as all get out. He kinda became part of the "White Martial Artist Stars" with Jean Claude Van Dame, Steven Seagal, and Chuck Norris. Check those movies out I mentioned if you got the time. Reply to this

What was the music playing between the showdown with Pierre Kirby and Edowan Bersmea and his henchman? The mission impossible sounding music.

That girl's hair was just too short for this sort of movie; she didn't look like a prostitute, she looked like a welder or a forklift driver. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just in most movies from that period prostitutes had mid-length hair. Reply to this

There's an interview with Edowan Bersma who was in a lot of the Ho / Lai films. He was also the one who spotted Kirby in a Hyatt.
On Kirby: "Do I remember him – ‘haha’ - Pierre was the main guy indeed. Pierre was the more body-build type amongst us, knowing the right moves, hence lasting much longer in the Ninja movie scene. A good guy in general with a fun sense of humour, and quite mature for his age."
"Yep it was me who spotted Kirby in the Hyatt afterwards, but failed to confirm this due to a Maze of people between me and him disappearing quickly. Pierre disappeared to the Philippines, on a yacht with friends. Typhoons (=cyclones) were the norm that Summer, leaving little to his fate. When I met with Danny (Thunder of Gigantic Serpent, )Dewey (The Super Master) and others in Korea and Japan years after, no one had heard from Pierre since."

LEGO just released a line of Ninja-themed sets under the title NINJAGO: MASTERS OF SPINJITZU. I'm thinking of doing some recreations of fight scenes from Godfrey Ho/Richard Harrison/Pierre Kirby movies, specifically the Ninja movies. Inspired by TurboJ Productions on YouTube, these stop-motion recreations will utilize the LEGO NINJAGO sets and the audio from the Godfrey Ho movies. Wait until you see Pierre Kirby in LEGO form! I'll have pictures as soon as I get to it. Reply to this
