Out for Blood
Hello, everyone, and welcome once again to the internets movie review column that has never experienced multiple flashbacks in real life (also, this column has never worn a trenchocat and a cowboy hat, either), The Gratuitous B-Movie Column, and I am your host Bryan Kristopowitz. In this issue, issue five hundred and ninety-three, I take a look at the low budget action flick
Out for Blood, which hit home video in mid-November 1993.
Out for Blood
Out for Blood, also known in some parts of the world as
Karate Man and directed by Richard W. Munchkin, stars real deal martial artist Don “The Dragon” Wilson (he’s also given a “based on a concept by” credit) as John Decker, a badass martial artist and lawyer who, after watching his family get brutally murdered by a gang of thugs, is afflicted with selective amnesia and a burning need for retribution. Every so often Decker experiences a cloudy flashback where he can see who killed his wife and child and then tried to kill him but he can’t see the killers clearly. Decker’s doctor Jay McConnell (Ron Steelman) isn’t sure that Decker will ever regain/obtain the memories he seems to be missing, but he wants Decker to keep coming to therapy and trying to remember.
