It was just a couple months ago that the trailers for Banlieu 13 started to circulate and drew our attention to some stellar French martial artists. Is it Germany's turn now? Could be ...
While I was drawing the winners' names for the House of Flying Daggers contest this morning a regular Twitch reader sent me this:
"I check all your site every day just stumbled across some cool news you guys might want to check out.......Check out this site for this upcoming kung fu no wires no stuntman movie from the Germans......Looks like we have another competitor for the Panom Yeerum aka Tony Jaa title.....Thanks Guys for your great site......"
I don't think these guys have Tony Jaa beat, but they're certainly no slouches in the martial arts department and the production values on the film look fantastic ... Check out the official site for upcoming German martial arts flick Kamfansage (The Last Apprentice) - complete with trailers and demo reels - here.
Thanks to PerfectBlueIllusion for the heads up.
Oooh....ehm....yes.
There is just something very wrong about Germans doing kung fu fantasy action films. I just can't take it seriously, but it's probably because I think german is hillarious.
DVD is up for sale at German Amazon...PAL, anamorphic video, German DD 5.1 and English subtitles!
