American Rickshaw
Finally got my hands on The Cauldron blu ray. Been drooling over this thing since I saw it was being released. From one of my favorite directors Sergio martino and decked out in special features. I knew I would love it there’s just no doubt. It has Pleasant Donald and Daniel Green (the star of martino’s action masterpiece Hands of Steel). And the story sounded completely insane I couldn’t wait to see it. But be careful what you wish for. This one is a dud. Some cool moments, and that’s it. And every time one of those cool moments happened I said ok here we go here comes the insanity. Strapped on my seatbelt for a very smooth and boring ride. 3/10

Hold on to it. It might be worth something in a few years. I got Martino’s Craving Desire for $10 and sold it years later for $50 at a used shop. But that movie was actually good. Trying to find something positive here but it’s hard😝

Re: American Rickshaw
Final thoughts after watching this for a second time. It’s unique and I give it credit for that. Donald Pleasance is great and so is Daniel Greene. Greene plays a really badass hero, so he naturally fits the bad guy role and it was a treat to see him unleashed scaring and threatening people. But the movie is confusing and uninteresting and there’s no excitement in the action scenes. So sadly I still think the best thing about the movie is that maybe I can sell it for a good price if it ever becomes a rare blu ray.
