Must Download Internet Movies: Ricky-Oh!

Ricky Oh is really one of the strangest, one of the most bizarre action films ever created. It is literally downright insane, and even after it’s over, you’ll have a hard time believing that some nuts really went out and made a movie like this. It was based on a Korean comic book series of the same name, and the result is a flick that belongs on any must download internet movies list just because it’s so… Well, strange.

The movie follows Ricky, a young martial artist who, for some reason or other that the film isn’t too clear on, winds up in prison. Herein he must fight his way through the four gang leaders who run the prison, each one with their own violent, weird form of martial art.

The movie is violent. Incredibly, surprisingly, wildly violent. However, it’s so incredibly violent that it just doesn’t really feel real in the end. It feels more like a cartoon. Or rather, maybe like a nightmare you might have about a cartoon. To give an example, one fight scene ends with a bad guy trying to strangle Ricky Oh with his own lower intestine. Yeah, it gets that ridiculous.

You could be grossed out by this scene, but you’ll probably be too busy laughing and scratching your head to really be shocked or disturbed, and this isn’t even the most bizarre scene of the film.

A later fight scene has a villain transforming into a giant monster. By giant monster, we really mean “A stuntman in a really, really, really bad costume”. You can practically see the zipper on the back of this thing. In another movie, the fakeness of the special effects might have been a problem. In Ricky-Oh, it’s a big part of the charm.

The story actually has a heart under all this, believe it or not. The movie touches on a lot of plot threads that you won’t really get if you haven’t read the comic, but the main story revolves around the subject of inhumanity. Ricky Oh fights for the dignity and freedom of all of the inmates, who are constantly bullied by the warden and his spoiled son as well as by the gangs that run the prison.

Of course, the violence and weirdness is why it’s a big cult hit, but that’s sort of its angle: Use something silly to get everyone’s attention and then teach them something about life while they’re actually listening to you.

And yet, the ending is somehow upbeat and optimistic. It’s weird, fun, funny, the violence only ever feels silly, not truly violent, and the result is an all time classic of weird action.

This makes the entire price of admission worth while. Download New Movie One of the greatest things about buying movie downloads online is that you can satisfy everyone’s taste. The big problem is, if you search for legal movie downloads, you may end up on a site which is just a scam.
