Awesome Asian Bad Guys
Hell-bent on vengeance, irresistible actress TAMLYN TOMITA (The Karate Kid, Part II) desperately turns to the offbeat filmmaking duo NATIONAL FILM SOCIETY (Patrick Epino and Stephen Dypiangco) for help. Their mission: assemble an awesome Asian bad guy crew to take down actor-turned-mob boss AARON TAKAHASHI (The Wedding Ringer), the nefarious crime lord responsible for her sister’s brutal murder. Patrick and Stephen scour Los Angeles, enlisting support from a who’s who of Asian bad guy actors including RANDALL PARK (The Interview), AL LEONG (Die Hard, Lethal Weapon), YUJI OKUMOTO (The Karate Kid, Part II), and GEORGE CHEUNG (Rambo: First Blood Part II). But when tension and infighting suddenly erupt within the group, their entire plan crumbles to pieces. With Aaron and his main henchman DANTE BASCO (Hook) poised to claim more innocent lives, the Asian bad guys must put their differences aside and kick major ass before it’s too late. Set in present day Los Angeles but packed with homages to classic ‘80s and ‘90s action movies, AWESOME ASIAN BAD GUYS is an ode to the tough-as-nails character actors who built their careers getting pulverized, impaled, and being blown to bits. By becoming the heroes of their own story, these often overlooked icons fight for and earn the recognition, respect, and redemption they’ve long deserved.
