An adulturer enters a mortuary and has the attendant tell him four stupid stories about the people in the coffins around him, which occasionally relate to their deaths.

Truly, the saddest melody is the sound of goodbye.

THE TWILIGHT PEOPLE is a rare mixture of ISLAND OF LOST SOULS, THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME, a small smattering of NIGHT EYES 2, and a large dollop of stupid.

Directed by legendary Filipino director Eddie Romero, and starring the considerably less legendary John Ashley, I will admit without reservation that THE TWILIGHT PEOPLE is, in fact, a movie that exists.

When an ancient Chinese demon invades the subway system of New York, it's up to renowned martial arts star Warhawk Tanzania to whoop some monster ass.

This would be renowned martial arts star Warhawk Tanzania's last film, rounding out his illustrious filmography at a total of two.

After being stabbed by a diseased dagger from an ancient civilization, Dr. Hess Green discovers that he is now not only immortal, but also has an unquenchable thirst for blood. Just don't call him a vampire.

To make matters worse, Dr. Green soon finds himself falling in love with his former assistant's wife, because shit just ain't complicated enough.

Ambient and surreal, GANJA AND HESS is a cinematic experience unlike any other.

Mike, John, and the rest of the esteemed Burbank Karate Club take an ill-advised trip to the fabled Warrior Island. When they finally arrive - after an exhaustive boat party - they are plagued by cannibal monks, disgraced zombie martial artists, and a jade smuggler with a horrific German accent and an even worse mustache.

Then the weird shit starts.

Frigga, a young girl rendered mute after being raped as a child, is kidnapped by Tony, a pimp sporting a Euro-sleaze beard and an even nastier plaid and paisley suit.

Hooked on heroin and sold into sex slavery, it doesn't take long for our heroine to realize that in order to survive, she must fight back.

With an ample amount of squirreled-away money, Frigga invests in karate lessons, sharpshooting, stunt driving, and C++ Coding. What color is *your* parachute?

Revenge ensues.
