Puertorrican Cult Classic Remastered

This movie premiered in 1996 when I was a teenager. For some reason it was a short-lived release, and I failed to watch it then and had to wait 27 years to watch it. It is very entertaining, and perhaps the first action/adventure film from Puerto Rico (the other one being Zack: Enfrentamiento Mortal, also starring Sifu Joseph Lando). It showcases various elements such as the archetypical hero's journey, a healthy dose of martial action scenes (Lando's bonafide martial arts practitioner), and deep spiritual insight. I hope it gets released on Blu-ray format. Puerto Rico has its own superhero in Sam, the avatar of El Poder del Shakti!

The Holy Grail of all out-of-print Puerto Rican films.

Fantasy. Hercolobus. Top Puerto Rican actors. Glitzy theatrical premiere. A cult classic was born... then, it disappeared, seemingly forever. Never released on home video, it only exists in the memory of those fortunate souls who went to cinemas in Puerto Rico and basked in the never-to-be-repeated glory of the human being known as Joseph Lando. There are so many out-of-print Puerto Rican films... but this one is the mother-lode. We can only dream... hope... wish that we get the chance to have our lives permanently improved by the re-release of this bona-fide masterpiece. Our future existence as a species depends on it.

Best Movie Ever

Joseph Lando delivers a powerful message in this movie, he shouldve been one of the top action stars of his generation, I only say this because this is an old movie and its just being remastered for newer audiences, the plot is well tought out, the acting is superb... Overall a great and enjoyable movie that I advice anyone wanting an action adventure movie with some heart in it as well to go watch it, Im just gonna fill this up with letters because it seems it needs to be longer for me to be able to post it, so anyway... Go watch it, you wont be dissapointed, and Jodeph Lando, you shouldve been a bigger star!

Simply an amazing experience

This movie has more then meets the eye and left people craving for more. Sadly I didn't see the original but I feel like this movie aged really well considering that most of the audience appeared to be young adults and teens and most of them if not everyone's reaction was full of excitement and joy something I rarely see. Overall great movie filled with action and well executed effects. I really hope to see more in the future like many others do as well. This will forever be a core memory of an experience. Me and all my friends really enjoyed this piece of history. Thank you for this treasure!
