Karate Rock (1990)

Fabrizio De Angelis leaves it all on the sweatstained mat at the stripmall karate studio that hosted the bonecrushing sensesshattering kickpocalypse between arch rivals Kevin and Jeff The final battle would have been pretty lame well lamer than it was if it hadnt been built toward with an unceasing increase in tension as Kevin and Jeff clashed in competitions where the stakes only got higher and higher and even freaking higher Why by the time that Kevin had bested Jeff in the race through the Tunnel of Death neither of them died making the tunnels name an unfortunate misnomer I was thinking that surely nothing could top that Well nothing but a training montage
