Barry
Prima is legendary Indonesian hero Jaka Sembung. This is either the
second or third entry in the 'Warrior' series, a bit confusing
because of the delayed International release date; it preceded or followed
the Warrior and the Blind Warrior. For this movie, Jaka Sembung joins
forces with a ninja named Black Squirrel against the evil Dutch dictators
and their super-strong Ironman (played by El Manik).
The
main reason this film is considered the best in the series is because
of director H. Tjut Djalil. He manages to take the story far beyond
standard martial arts fare into his obsession with quirky horror. Indonesia's
legendary madman director H. Tjut Djalil [MYSTICS

actioner. He will be remembered for his amazing contribution to cult
cinema. Mr Djalil died from a heart attack in May 2014 at age 86.
