Big Trouble in Little China is likely one of my favorite campy action movies of all time. Directed by John Carpenter in 1986 and starring Kurt Russell, this movie quickly moved into cult following status.   

For those of you not familiar, the movie follows Jack Burton, played by Kurt Russell, a tough-talking, wisecracking truck driver who suddenly finds himself deep beneath San Francisco’s Chinatown, in a murky, creature-filled world ruled by Lo Pan, a 2000-year-old magician who mercilessly presides over an empire of spirits. Dodging demons and facing baffling terrors, Jack battles his way through Lo Pan’s dark domain in a full-throttle, action-riddled ride to rescue the girl.

Anyway, my ode to Big Trouble in Little China comes in the form of a “video game.”  You see, during the big fight scene at the end of the movie, the two wizards (good vs. evil) do battle.  Only they do it virtually in one of the first street fighter type virtual hologram fight scenes I ever saw as a kid.

I give you Egg Shen Vs. Lo Pan
