"The Killer Elite"

[BalisongMan]

(If ya have "The Balisong Manual" it's on pg 10) Anybody seen the 1975 movie "The Killer Elite"? I am trying to find it on DVD, in "The Balisong Manual" it has a brief little blip about it, it talks about Dan Inosanto and how he created a balisong sequence for the movie that was eventually cut out of the final, the movie crew said that it was the best action footage ever shot. The reason that I want to find it on DVD is that sometimes they contain scenes that were deleted from the movie. I really want to see it, if anyone has any extra info on the movie could you please let me know? Thanks!

It was filmed here in the Bay Area, there is a scene with a bomb in a car stopped on a freeway overpass near a warehouse the Opera has in Dogpatch. It came out a long time ago, but there might be an old hand in the Local who worked on it. I'll ask around at the next meeting.

It is on DVD, and at Amazon.

Some good cane fighting scenes as well, another fine Peckinpah film.

hello Cameron,
Dan Insanto's Martial Arts Academy is rather close to my house. I've seen a few times around the neighborhood. If I see him again I will ask for ya.
