The Octagon, starring Chuck Norris and his mustache. This movie is from 1980 and I'm pretty sure Chuck Norris and Tom Selleck had an 80s rivalry going for who had the manliest combo facial/chest hair on the planet. I can't tell you who was the best, but it's clear that we were all winners from this rivalry.
I think, therefore I roundhouse kick. |
If you look closely, you may see a medallion. |
Man, that Chuck is smooth. Watch the way he handles his lady as she walks into a room where Chuck is having a conversation with a hot chick holding an Uzi:
Lady: Who's she?
Chuck: Nevermind.
And that's it, Chuck sure knows how to keep his lady in line.
I'm a few minutes in, and, wholly crap, some woman just got killed by a blowgun dart! After the death by blowgun, ninjas are scaling down a building to kill Chuck in his sleep. No dice, Chuck takes them out. He throws guys out windows, busts up all the furniture and then tells the manager (who came up to complain about the noise) that him and his lady were just getting a little frisky. That Chuck, he's a sly one.
Now Chuck is fighting with a sword . . . against a dozen or so ninjas and the head bad guy. A couple of roundhouse kicks fly. Wait, its the killer who won't die from Silent Rage, and he's a good guy. I'm so confused.
This movie is all over the place. I've seen this before and I have no idea what's going on. He's released a bunch of prisoners being held by the ninjas . . . buildings are blowing up . . . the prisoners are revolting (that's what happens when you don't get to shower for a while). Chuck takes out the bad guy and walks off into a sunrise.
WTF? I have no idea what just happened. Also, I did not see any eight sided objects in this whole movie.
How about I close this out with a little Chuck Norris trivia: Chuck's real name is Carlos Ray Norris and this dude is 70 years old now. I'm sure he could still roundhouse kick me into submission. Carlos served for 4 years in the Air Force, much of the time in Korea.
