Grab your friends, grab some FREE popcorn, and get ready to laugh your socks off at this so-bad-it's-good masterpiece. See you there!
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991) is a Hong Kong martial arts film based on a Japanese manga. The movie is set in a dystopian future where privatized prisons are run by corrupt and sadistic wardens. The protagonist, Ricky Ho (played by Fan Siu-wong), is a martial artist with superhuman strength who is imprisoned for avenging his girlfriend's death.
Despite its intense violence, Riki-Oh has gained a cult following for its outlandish action sequences, campy dialogue, and the over-the-top portrayal of the protagonist's righteous quest for justice. The film is often celebrated for its unintentional humor and has become a staple in the genre of so-bad-it's-good cinema.
