            In New York City, young martial artist Bruce "Leroy" Green (Taimak) trains with his teacher, who shoots arrows at him. When Leroy catches a blue arrow in midair, the teacher says that the student has successfully completed his training and is now ready to go out into the world. Leroy disagrees because he has not yet achieved "the Glow"; which is when a warrior's body glows because he has become the best fighter in the world. The teacher gives Leroy a gold medallion and tells him to seek out Master Sum Dum Goy, who will help him achieve "the Glow." Sum Dum Goy will provide training in exchange for the medallion.Later, Leroy watches a film by his idol, Bruce Lee, but a rival marital artist, Sho'nuff (Julius J. Carry III), comes to the theater looking for a fight. Sho'nuff believes Leroy is his only competitor for supremacy and wants to fight one-on-one, but Leroy does not believe in fighting unless it is necessary. When Leroy ignores Sho'nuff's challenge, audience members attack Sho'nuff, but he beats them as Leroy sneaks out the emergency exit. Sho'nuff vows to destroy Leroy.Meanwhile, Eddie Arkadian (Chris Murney), a successful video game producer, wants to get into the music business by managing singer Angela Viracco (Faith Prince), and tries to get her video on the popular music show, "7th Heaven." However, the show's host, Laura Charles (Vanity), is picky about the music she plays. Arkadian sends henchmen to kidnap Laura, so he can force her to watch Angela's video. As Laura leaves the studio and steps into her limousine, Leroy walks by. Just then, Laura realizes her driver is an impostor and attempts to escape. As Arkadian's men overpower Laura, Leroy saves her. After the fight, Leroy flags down a taxicab for Laura, then leaves before she can get his name. Laura finds Leroy's gold medallion on the ground and takes it with her. Arkadian's men return, claiming that Laura's bodyguards attacked them. Later, Leroy retreats to the scene, looking for his medallion.The next day, Leroy teaches a marital arts class, where he tells his students not to fight unless necessary. Just then, Sho'nuff disrupts the class with his gang, demanding Leroy to kiss his feet and declare him "the Master." When Leroy refuses, Sho'nuff's men threaten to harm Leroy's best friend, Johnny Yu (Glen Eaton). As Leroy kneels, Sho'nuff kicks him, proclaiming they will battle one day soon.The next day, Leroy has breakfast with his family, including his younger brother, Richie (Leo O'Brien), who has a crush on Laura Charles. Richie plans on winning the "7th Heaven" dance contest because the prize is a date with the hostess. When a commercial for the show appears on the television, Leroy recognizes Laura. He assumes she has his medallion, and begs Richie to take him to the television studio. Richie believes Leroy is also infatuated with Laura, and teases his brother about his sexual inexperience. However, Richie reluctantly agrees to escort Leroy, but asks him to conceal the fact that they are brothers.Upon arriving at the studio, Richie leaves Leroy alone at the back entrance while he seeks out a secret entryway. There, Leroy witnesses one of Arkadian's henchmen, "Rock," (Mike Starr) forcing Laura into a van. While driving away, Rock accidentally drops a folder labeled "Eddie Arkadian Productions." Later, at Arkadian's studio, Laura is forced to watch Angela's video, and ordered to promote the singer on her show. When Laura refuses, Arkadian's men attack, but Leroy comes to the rescue. Arkadian vows revenge against Leroy, who then brings Laura back to her apartment, introduces himself, and asks for his medallion. Laura returns the item and attempts to flirt with Leroy, but he leaves.The next day, Leroy tracks down Master Sum Dum Goy, which turns out to be a fortune cookie factory. Outside, he runs into brothers Hu, Lu, and Du Yi, who refuse Leroy entry. Meanwhile, Sho'nuff and his men arrive at Leroy's family-owned restaurant, "Daddy Green's Pizza." When Leroy's parents refuse to divulge their son's location, Sho'nuff destroys the restaurant. Moments later, Leroy returns and Richie calls him a coward for not fighting Sho'nuff, prompting Leroy to train harder.One day, Laura shows up at Leroy's studio, asking him to be her bodyguard. Leroy declines, claiming that he must continue training to become "the Master." Back at Arkadian's studio, fighters train to get revenge against Leroy. Angela laments that they will never convince Laura to play her music, and when Arkadian promises to "get rid of" Leroy, she quits.The next day, Arkadian offers Sho'nuff money to fight Leroy, but Sho'nuff agrees to fight for free as long as Arkadian sets a trap. Meanwhile, Leroy returns to Laura's apartment and apologizes. On the way to her studio, Leroy asks her how to seduce a woman, and she offers herself as a teacher. At the studio, Laura plays Bruce Lee's Fist of Fury on the stage's video screen, thrilling Leroy. Moments later, Richie sneaks into the studio, finds Laura and Leroy kissing, and storms away. When Leroy sees a scene in which Bruce Lee disguises himself to get into the villain's lair, he abruptly leaves and Richie returns inside. There, Arkadian kidnaps both Laura and Richie.Back at the Sum Dum Goy factory, Leroy pretends to be a pizza delivery man, gets inside, and demands to see its owner, but the brothers confess to making up the person, "Sum Dum Goy," to sell cookies. When Leroy later confronts his teacher about the lie, he learns that the mastery he is looking for already resides within himself. Meanwhile, Angela tells Johnny about Arkadian's plan to kill Leroy, and Johnny later tells his friend. Leroy gathers his weapons and prepares to fight. When Johnny insists on coming with him, Leroy locks him in a closet, but one of the younger students lets him out. When Leroy walks into his studio, Arkadian's fighters attack, but Johnny and Leroy's other students arrive to join in the fight.During the battle, Arkadian and Rock take Laura to another location, and Leroy follows. Richie breaks free of his confinement and follows. In an abandoned building, Sho'nuff finally battles Leroy and gets the upper hand, dunking Leroy's head into a vat of water and demanding that Leroy proclaim him "the Master." While underwater, Leroy realizes his own mastery, and his body glows. Leroy breaks free and defeats Sho'nuff. Unhappy with the outcome, Arkadian shoots Leroy, but Leroy catches the bullet with his teeth. Leroy ties up Arkadian and leaves him to be arrested by the police.Later that evening, Laura tapes her television show, and Leroy arrives with flowers. As they kiss, Richie proudly announces that Leroy is both his brother and "the Master."

52 Pick-Up

Action Jackson


            In the year 2053, extensive ecological damage has resulted in largely lawless areas in the USA Midwest that are controlled by mutant raiders. Harry Stark (Michael Ironside), an ex-cop who now works as a bounty hunter in the wastelands, saves a woman (Vanity) from mutant outlaws. After she pulls a knife on him, he knocks her unconscious and brings her back to town for her bounty. Captain Raymond (Monte Markham), Stark's former commanding officer, tells him that the woman, Reno, must be brought to Neon City to collect his payment. Raymond requests that Stark ride shotgun on a transport that is going to Neon City, but he refuses. When Stark's truck blows up, Raymond claims it to be an act of terrorism by mutants. Stark attacks Raymond, only to be knocked unconscious and placed on the transport with Reno.On board the transport are the driver Bulk (Lyle Alzado), a former friend and ex-cop whom Stark once arrested; Tom (Nick Klar), a serial killer who pretends to be a doctor; Dickie Devine (Richard Sanders), a clown; Sandy (Valerie Wildman), Stark's ex-wife; Twink (Juliet Landau), the sheltered daughter of an influential Neon City politician; and Wing (Arsenio Trinidad), an old man who keeps to himself. Before they leave, Raymond gives them the opportunity to receive a refund and stay behind, as mutant activity along the road has been excessive; all elect to go instead of staying and collecting a refund. Along the way, they pass through a deadly Xander Cloud, and, when they stop afterward, they meet a family who is suffering from extensive radiation damage. Stark buys a euthanasia kit from Devine and donates it to the grateful family. Disgusted, Reno calls Devine and Stark no better than herself.When they reach their first destination, an outpost where they are to meet with an escort, mutant raiders have killed almost everyone. The sole survivor, Bulk's sister, is entrusted to Tom, who pretends to aid her until the others leave him alone, after which he murders her. Reno saves Twink's life and flees the site on a motorcycle, but Stark recovers her. Stark proposes that they continue without the escort and surprises Reno when he gives her a vote. She sides with the majority, and they push on.Their next stop is at a restaurant staffed by mutants. Twink is surprised when the others treat the mutant staffers as equals. While on the road, mutant raiders attack, and Devine is wounded. They jettison some of their cargo to escape. After they barely survive a "bright", an intense temperature change, Tom murders Devine.After burying Devine, the transport encounters a shelter, where they rest and recuperate. Tom tries to force himself on Reno, but she beats him; Tom claims she could not handle his rejection. Reno and Stark bond as he consoles her, and she reveals that she killed her foster parents accidentally when fleeing from their child prostitution ring. After they have sex, Reno asks Stark to run away with her, but he refuses to leave the others.After discussing the world's ecological damage with Wing, Bulk realizes that Wing is actually Dr. Xander, the scientist responsible for much of the damage. Xander explains that he was attempting to solve the world's problems, and, if he reached a proper laboratory, he might be able to reverse the effects. Bulk promises not to turn him in, and they return to their journey.During the next mutant raid, they run out of ammunition. Xander improvises a laser weapon that saves them, but not before Sandy is shot and the transport battery finally dies. Xander elects to leave for the border of Canada, and the rest walk to Neon City, which is nearby. Tom gives Sandy a dose of painkillers.When the group finally arrives on foot at Neon City, Twink expedites their entry when she is reunited with her father and smooths things over between Stark and the local police, who are commanded by Jenkins, a man with a grudge against Stark. When Sandy dies of a massive drug overdose, Tom is finally exposed. He takes Twink hostage, but Stark kills him. This results in a standoff between Stark and Jenkins; Reno calms Stark, and they leave together. When Jenkins asks about his prisoner, Stark says she died during transport. As they leave Neon City, Stark and Reno pick up Wing/Dr. Xander.
