Post Description

The story follows Kurt Sloane, a cornerman for his brother Eric (Dennis Alexio), an American kickboxing champion. Kurt and Eric travel to Bangkok to take on Tong Po (Michel Qissi), the undefeated Thailand champion. However, Kurt and Eric quickly discover that they are outmatched by Tong Po after the first round. However, Eric is too stubborn to give up and returns for round two despite Kurt's urging not to. Eric continues to take a vicious beating, prompting Kurt to throw in the towel. Rather than stop the fight, Tong Po continues and brutally attacks him in the ring to a point where Eric is paralyzed from the waist down. Kurt vows to avenge his brother and defeat Tong Po in the ring, and goes to a remote area in Thailand to train with a famous trainer, Xian Chow, who helps him master the art of Muay Thai ("Thai boxing"). As he becomes more and more powerful, local Thai mobsters worry that he'll interfere in their work in underground kickboxing and force him into a death match against Tong Po. In what they call the "ancient way" the contestants wrap their hands in hemp rope, coat the rope with resin, and then dip their hands in broken glass to make their hands deadly weapons. In an epic final battle Tong Po and Kurt face off, and in the end Kurt beats Po, victory and vengeance now his.
