Exceptional Documentry On First World Karate Match (2001-11-20)

This documentry features Mas Oyama's Kyokushinki Karate that would spawn other great Karate systems like Enshin and Seidokan. There are also many great martial artists features like Sato and Joko Ninomiya (founder of Enshin and Sabaki). The documentry follows many fighters from America, Japan, England, Thailand, and Hong Kong as they enter the first world karate tournement.

The matches are good, but what is especially interetsing is following the training that these individuals go through to enter this tournement. This is fighting karate and anyone interested in rugged sparring and work-outs should view this film.

Karate the way it should be (2000-09-03)

This is a excellent documentary, the men in this video are real Martial Artists, no fancy uniforms, no glitz or glamour,no foam dipped pads,no tag kumite matches, just real blood,sweat,and tears,This is the way Karate should have stayed,it is good to see that this style is still alive with the art of Kyokushin which is what style the film is based on.I for one always look back to this video for inspiration as I'am now a Kyokushin Karateka and Karateka for the past 19 years in Wado Kai Karate as a 3rd dan. Its too bad alot forgot about what Karate was all about and its nice to see this video still around to show others how it should be.This video also has a funky soundtrack as it was made in 1976. a Real Feel Good Video.

Fighting Black Kings (2000-06-25)

Unfortunately no one can be told what Fighting Black Kings is like, you have to see it for yourself.

A look at the good ol days (2000-06-25)

This is an excellent excellent documentary. Its a look back to the good old days before karate became a franchise and every 5 year old is a third degree blackbelts. These men are the hard men of karate, this is no Mcdojo documentary. It takes an excellent look at when karate meant something and the formation of Oyama's Kyukoshin karate which was aimed at bringing back karate like it should be. Its also a hip, hip movie and was filmed during the blaxploitation years, so its got a funky soundtrack to watch an amazing film with. You wont regret it I gaurantee.
