Who are we to say that Andrew "Dice" Clay and Teri Hatcher could not be a couple?
Anyways, the Diceman was not on the top of the world in 1993 - a proposed network series was canceled and he started honing down the edge in his stand-up routine. But somehow, he played a near superheroic bouncer that battles martial artists over a rare lotus flower and when I say, "Yeah, Albert Pyun directed and wrote this," that pretty much explains it all.
The bad guys are not ninjas - they will say this often - but Chinese Shaolin monks who believe that eating the lotus flower will give them infinite life. It's in the orbit of the Brain Smasher (Clay) because Cammy Crain (Deborah Van Valkenburgh, Jackie on Too Close for Comfort and, of course, The Warriors) has sent the flower to her supermodel sister (Hatcher).
Wu, the leader of The Shaolin Monks, is played by Yuji Okumoto. As Chozen in The Karate Kid Part II, he is the best bad guy ever as even in the face of a hurricane, he will not redeem himself.
This film also packs on the character actors, with Brion James, Charles Rocket, Nicholas Guest and Tim Thomerson as detectives, Liz Sheridan as Brain Smasher's mother (meaning that Sheridan played mother to Jerry Seinfeld and Andrew "Dice" Clay in the very same year), Dee "Matilda the Hun" Booher and Liz Shaye.
This only came out on VHS in the U. S. and never even made it to DVD. I mean, who doesn't want to see Dice punch a man into his brain? The title does not lie. This does happen.
