DAY 22 – UNMASKING THE IDOL
My first introduction to the B-grade James Bond knock-off world of Duncan Jax was with the brilliantly-bad ORDER OF THE BLACK EAGLE. Although actually a sequel to UNMASKING THE IDOL (1986), it seems that this first flick flew so under the radar that there was at least a VHS re-release after the schlocky tiny success of ORDER. All I have to say is that this movie has everything. A ninja secret agent, a mad mission, revenge, a badass baboon sidekick, etc. This movie absolutely delivers in every cheesy way. ORDER is only superior because the villains are Nazis. This movie is exactly my flavor…
5/10
Glad to hear that it is as good as the trailer made it out to be! It was already on my list of must see movies, but I guess it needs to be a bit closer to the top.
