I know this is goign to sound VERY vague, but please, do what you can.
There was a BAD Martial Arts movie that is at least 5 years old ( and probably not more than 20 ). The story that I saw was fairly standard – good guy finds evil ‘castle’ inhabited by evil guy; therefore good guy assaults the ‘castle’.
The movie didn’t stand out in any way shape or form except in the following: during one of the scenes showing how nasty the bad guy was, he had tweezers with a piece of meat in them. The bad guy was trying to get a cobra to strike at the meat. Just as the cobra started striking, bad guy opened the tweezers to drop the meat, and stabbed the cobra with the tweezers.
Okay, I know this isn’t a particularly good description, but you all have done the impossible before. Any help would be appreciated.

Was it a Chinese movie? I haven’t found anything yet, but it might help narrow things down a bit to know where it might be from.
Sorry sublight. I don’t know – but I don’t think it was subtitled, and it appeared fairly low budget hollywood.
I recognize I’m not much help – I just hoped someone else had seen that part of the movie and might remember.

Damn. I think I saw that movie. Unfortunately, it was probably late night fare, so I wasn’t set on “remember this movie” mode…
If it was a bad martial arts movie it was probably Japanese.
That’s my theory anyway.
Or American. I mean, Jean Claude “the Brown Belt” Van Damme, Steven “don’t call me Ponytail Boy” Segal, Robin “I was cool in Mortal Kombat” Shou, and so on… Feh.
Now, now, there’s no need to fight. American and (non-samurai) Japanese martial arts movies are BOTH terrible.
Well, if you take <I>Enter the Dragon,The Last Dragon, </I>and the <I>Street Fighter</I> movies out of the equation, that is. (the 70’s Sonny Chiba movies, not that horrible Van Damme/Raul Julia thing. Not actually good, but entertaining)
Though I’ll admit a bizarre weakness for Don Wilson movies, for some reason, in sort of a “Hai-keeba!” way . . .

Anyone seen Shaolin Dolemite? Rudy Ray Moore is in it for all of one minute, also, what other movie has Davy Crockett going to china for martial arts training, joining the Dolemite clan, and fighting Tupac! This movie wasn’t even listed in the IMDB!
