Bloodfist II

Once again Don Wilson has retired from kickboxing. This time it's because he's killed a man in the ring. So instead he teaches others how to do this stuff, until he's lured to an island run by Joe Mari Avellana, who has a mysterious young woman, Rina Reyes running around. It seems that Avellana's scientists have synthesized a steroid that will make anyone a killing machine and then quickly vanish from the blood. This way they can cheat undetectably at the private kickboxing tournaments he holds on his own private island. Then they kill the losers.

The camerawork has improved a bit from the first in the series. The crowd direction remains awful.

Don "The Dragon" Wilson is back as Jake Raye. But, before you question why you should watch this film and I am not actually suggesting that you do, I first must say it is way better than the original. While certainly not amazing better fight scenes, better production values and even the love interest for Don, here played by Rina Reyes is much better. She is a deeper character and she can kick some ass, too.

Right out of the chute we see Jake has killed someone in the ring. He has decided to quit kickboxing altogether. But, Jake is racing back to Manila to help out his friend Vinny (Maurice Smith). Only to find out he is involved with mega baddie Su (Joe Mari Avellena) who is wanting to run a gladiator-styled fighting tournament on his private island (sounds like ENTER THE DRAGON) and using new steroids he is developing.

While it is better than the original still does not get a passing grade because the acting still is the pits and low-grade fight scenes.

Jake Raye(Don "The Dragon" Wilson) is back in action, only this time the action is more extreme. In "Bloodfist II", Jake and several other fighters go down to the Phillipines, where a friend of Jake's calls him out to help him. It turned out to be a booby-trap for all of them. Jake's friend seem to got himself way over his head. Working with the wrong people and getting greedy from those people. Jake and his friends fight for their lives when their opponents take a steroid which makes them impervious to pain, but some of the fighters didn't do too well. They kill off whoever doesn't last in the fight whether it was Jake's friends or the opponents. Looks like those who took the steroid, didn't have a clue that they were pawns as well. Jake friend took the same steroid and he paid the price for betraying him and his friends. The steroid may have given him immunity to pain, but it didn't make him indestructible when he took a roundhouse to the neck. Once the old saying goes, Once a pawn, always a pawn, forever a pawn! That steroid had only one purpose, and look what happens. That movie was a lot of fun, and the plot of the movie was great, I liked that. Rating 3 out of 5 stars.

Don "The Dragon" Wilson returns as Jake Raye a kickboxer who is forced out of retirement to face altered warriors in this Enter The Dragon knock off. Bloodfist II maybe a definite improvement over it's awful predecessor, but it still isn't all that good, however some decent fightscenes as well as a fast pace makes this less painful. Don "The Dragon" Wilson may be the only martial arts action star to date that has killed the same bad guy twice, while playing the same character.

This movie is one of the best movies that Don "the dragon" Wilson has made!! its really good to watch and what makes it more better is the fact that there are some great fighters in this movie, i really like this movie it has a lot of mysteries in it!!
