'Hell Comes to Frogtown' feels like it was precision-engineered for cult status, which is exactly what it achieved. Read more about it here.

-
DEATH PROMISE (1977)
"A warning to the rich: Get Off Our Backs!"
Also released in the US as "Slumfighter" which is a far superior title, but I guess they wanted people to think of "Death Wish." Basically there are there good honest people living in this tenement who are being oppressed by The Man, "but they can only take so much before they are forced to fight!" If nothing else, check out the original trailer, which is gold from beginning to end:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDVmhGqx_mA
- https://invidious.materialio.us/watch?v=wDVmhGqx_mA
You'll note a universally low production quality, and even the fight choreography is poorly done. But the actors have some real physical skills, so you'll frequently see a decent leap, spin, or jump-kick. With a bit more money this could have reached "Bloodsport" levels. And the main theme is truly funky.
Summary: entertaining, if your expectations are as low as a landlord... That's a Promise!
