Only thing I remember from that movie is the woman with one tit. Like, how are you gonna be in a whole-ass movie, and the only thing people remember is your co-star's uniboob.

I also remember this line:
“At that moment, the Chosen One learned a valuable lesson about iron claws: THEY HURT LIKE CRAP, MAN!”

There’s a lot of stuff I remember from that movie. It’s one of those films where you’ll get more out of it if you recognize the film for the shlock that it is.

But what about the nuts?

I mean that's basically the point, it was intended as a parody of the schlocky low-budget kung fu movies that were poorly dubbed in the 70s.

The voices not matching the characters, the bad lip-sync, the goofy over the top sound effects and choreography, the random ass plot, the main villain murdering random people for no reason, the main character literally being named "The Chosen One", etc, etc. It's all very intentional.

Funny you mention all that, Since the film that was used, Tiger & Crane Fists, can be watched in full on YouTube.

When it comes to Friedberg and Zelzter shit, their worst movies are indeed Epic Movie, Meet the Spartans, Disaster Movie and Vampires Suck. They also did I think either a Hunger games or Fast&Furious "parody", but that shit was so bad it didnt even get a theater release. Actually, I think after that movie those guys just disappeared, I wouldnt be shocked if they got buried in the Nevada desert somewhere.

Seltzer and Friedberg killed the golden goose. They also had a Taken spoof called "Who the Fuck Took My Daughter" in development.

Scary stuff. They were allowed to thrive for years, feeding off pop culture like bloated ticks until they finally popped. It’s the same trajectory Alex Kurtzman is on.

It's the movie @Otis Boi is from. I remember my kids hating the show too. They'd always change the channel if it came on.

LMAO, This movie has some good moments but overall very OK. If you want to see a bad talking cow movie see Home on the range. The T.V show was very surreal it felt like the writers just did what every they wanted and everything felt like someone feeling in an adlib. I can see why a early 2000s kid audience would hate it but I think if it came out today it would have been more well recived.

There are many quotable lines from Kung Pow Enter the Fist.

But what about the nuts?

The pay off from this is great too.

This would make a good out-of-context clip

I think Vampires Suck is actually the best one they made, especially compared to unwatchable brain cancer like Disaster Movie. There are actually some scenes where the actors attempt to make the jokes and gags work in Vampires Suck.

You want to see a genuinely irredeemably bad Twilight parody, check out Breaking Wind. It came out ~2 years later and somehow managed to slip in a rape scene between morbidly obese Jacob and Bella while she's sleeping.

The Starving Games and SuperFast, and yeah I'm pretty sure those were straight-to-dvd.

Film Brain actually reviewed that when he was still doing Bad Movie Beatdown.

Almost like..... he is reading this thread!

Can someone else suffer through Doug’s review? I can’t even parse the tone from the thumbnail anymore.
