BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA

John Carpenter's 1986 cult classic BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA puts the 'amp' in 'camp' and is for certain regarded as amongst the genre's finest - if not funniest. Kurt Russell5walks the walk (he swaggers like John Wayne) and talks the talk ("I was born ready!") as blowhard truck driver Jack Burton who finds himself waist-deep in all kinds of Chinatown intrigue and mumbo jumbo. Show me another movie with three meteorologically cleft martial artists, two emerald-eyed damsels in distress and one century-old Fu Manchu warlock who can shoot laser from his mouth(!), and I'll show you Steven in suspenders...or not.
