Details

This listing is for the standard edition 4k UHD/Blu-ray Combo. The limited edition slipcover (designed by Robert Sammelin) was limited to 6,000 units and is sold out. The two versions are identical, aside from the slipcover.

Kristi Jones (Cynthia Rothrock) is a street tough member of a martial arts gang known as the Red Dragons. In an attempt to go straight and leave the gang life behind, Kristi participates in mafia run back alley street fights in an attempt to win enough money to put her sister through college. Meanwhile, a sadistic fighter known as Stingray becomes increasingly violent while taking part in unsanctioned fights to the death. When Stingray's wife leaves him due to his increasingly aggressive behavior, Stingray loses his grip on reality and begins raping, murdering, and removing the eyes of any woman that resembles his wife. When Stingray turns his murderous rage on Kristi's sister, Kristi has no choice but to reluctantly team up with Nick, a martial arts trained detective, in an attempt to stop Stingray's rampage before more women turn up dead.

Directed by notorious Hong Kong filmmaker, Godfrey Ho (under one of his many pseudonyms), UNDEFEATABLE has obtained true cult status thanks in large part to its now infamous final fight. Starring the always bad-ass Cynthia Rothrock (Righting Wrongs, Martial Law) in one of her most memorable roles, as well as an impressive martial arts performance by John Miller (Honor and Glory), and featuring an eye-popping performance by Don Niam in one of his few acting roles. Vinegar Syndrome is proud to present one of our most requested titles, UNDEFEATABLE, for the first time on Blu-ray and 4K UHD, restored from the original camera negative. Also, included in this set is the rarely seen alternate Hong Kong cut released under the title BLOODY MARY KILLER. In true Godfrey Ho fashion, the film was re-edited into an almost new movie, featuring more fight scenes, an entirely new subplot involving Triad gangsters, as well as additional characters, including known martial arts actor Robin Shou (Mortal Kombat).

Reviews

Hilarious!

"Thus is a top tier release from VS! The movie is nuts! Its full of the craziest acton and it so goddamn funny! If you get anything from VS, get this! Rothrock is my queen!"

Stephen J. (5/5)

Chessy but fun martial arts flick

"Awesome packaging and transfer. If you're a fan of Cynthia Rothrock you'll have a good time with this one. It's cheesy but has some solid action and choreography."

Brenton H. (5/5)

One of my favorite Cynthia

"One of my favorite Cynthia Rothrock movies. It has everything: great action, cheesy dialog and a memorable villain. I had the old OOP dvd but this version just blows it out of the water, this is THE definitive edition. Great picture quality/restoration, amazing extras (love Cynthia's commentary) and one of those amazing, action exploitation finales you have to see to believe. I'm glad VS keep releasing all these amazing editions, now I'm just waiting for Honor and Glory 😁"

Undefeatable - 4K Blu-Ray Review

"Cynthia Rothrock simply delivers. The girl next door that can kick anyone's ass while still looking good. I miss those movies that were simple and fun. Pure entertainment!"

NIKOS D. (5/5)

Another Rothrock on the shelf

"As I near completing all of Vinegar Snydrome's Rothrock releases, Undefeatable was a total blast and I can see why it was deserving of the 4K treatment. I missed the original slip, so I picked up the VSMC slip to put on this bad boy."

Nicholas C. (5/5)

Nice release of a disappointing movie (for me)

"Had a great time with Godfrey Ho’s Ninja Terminator, so I was surprised that I didn’t get on Undefeatable’s wavelength. Has its moments, so I would still recommend it to fans of cult oddities"

Alexander H. (2/5)

Cynthia Rothrock

"I enjoy all of Cynthia's movies but especially her time spent with Golden Harvest! Had seen Undefeated before but never had the opportunity to have it in my collection so extremely happy that Vinegar Syndrome could provide this."

Gerard B. (5/5)

A Godfrey Ho Classic

"Considering some of Ho's other films, this was surprisingly a great time with well done fight scenes. The 4K looks amazing and this release is also packed with a ton of interesting special features."

Lela b. (5/5)

Good.

"The transfer is good, 3 disk pack, all good."

Derek M. (5/5)

Rothrock keeps up with the best
