Little Mad Guy / 37 Ninja Kids: When Stop & Shop had a half off sale on dollar DVDs, I spring into action. Their selection is limited to EastWest titles and so I picked up a couple of kung fu discs. Last night I ended up watching Little Mad Guy and gave up on 37 Ninja Kids.

This film is typical early 80s Kung fu slapstick. After Jackie Chan's "Snake in the Eagle's Shadow" and"Drunken Master" the genre expanded and new stars came and went. This one stars Ming Tsai Wu as "Little Fatty." There's not much plot other than the fact that he needs to beat up the bad guys and learn from another master new types of kung fu and stuff like that.

Siu Tien Yuen (the old Drunken Master himself) has a cameo in this film but since it was made three years after his death, it's quite obvious that it's stock footage.
