One of the strangest Filipino/US co-productions from the 80’s, this rarely-screened exploitation fever dream is better known by its other title Kung Fu Cannibals. When a passing cruise ship stumbles upon an enclave of cannibal Buddhist monks, a battle between the martial artists onboard the ship versus the monks – and the ninjas and zombies they conjure to aid them – erupts.
