I first saw this in the movies when it first came out as "bogard" and it was rated x,the box had a unrated title but after viewing it it was the same r rated version that has been out for years.as i recall there was about 10 -15 minutes from the original movie cut out to give it a r rating so it played as all the other versions out there with different names.if you can find the original version it may say x but it should have been rated mature as there was no real sex in the film.They should remaster it as the color looks like a vhs or "beta " tape.

I watched this low budget "blaxploitation" movie from a DVD set that also included three other blaxploitation films. The story is that of a younger black man(Fisk) who lives in a dirty and dangerous part of town. One day, he is given an opportunity by Mr Logan(the local mob leader), to make a whole lot of cash by kicking some booty in street fighting contests. After becoming mildly successful, he is shaken down by Hienrick(a dirty cop). Already stressed by the business of fighting, once he discovers that his whino friend has been murdered, he decides that he wants out. Of course, that comes with a price. So one day, when his best friend is about to take Fisk's wife home, the car suddenly explodes and kills both of them. So now Fisk is after Mr. Logan, Hienrick, and whoever else he felt that was involved in the murdering of his wife and best friend. The movie is shot entirely on location(in the seedier areas of Los Angeles); so the ambiance of the movie feels gritty and realistic. Although a low budget flick, the acting is realistic and intense. I found the dialogue to be racially realistic. The movie, being a 70's low budget flick, looks and sounds grainy. The ending, I found, is quite disappointing. Overall an enjoyable movie experience if you can find the movie on DVD for under $10 dollars.
Update - This movie is available in other low-budget DVD packs. Try the Martial Arts 50 movie pack.
