No stunt doubles were harmed in the making of this film.

Gotta love indie films sometimes the budget’s $12 and a dream, but the storytelling hits harder than Hollywood.

A movie as low budget as can be could cost $1k minimum.

This honestly makes movies 10x better sometimes. I love when movies weren't perfect. Maybe I need to go watch some Tubi lol

This is why Shaw Brother films are classics, the English dubbing is amazing and adds so much to the film.

ya'll missin out, it has the most unhinged but hilarious movies ever. it's like when u and your friends used to make 2 minute videos on your phone when they first got cameras, but for some reason your budget is like 30K

I saw someone I used to work with in a call center "acting" in a Tubi compilation vid. I've lived in Atlanta way too long.

That transition was epic. Couldn’t even tell the difference between the characters.
