It’s about this crazy fighter with a metal hand who’s obsessed with being the best so he kills all the champs. It stars some weird Australian karate guy. I thought it was called Blood Moon, but that’s not it.

[Enter the Dragon](http://www.coldfusionvideo.com/archives/enter-the-dragon-1973/), perhaps…?

Sounds like [Richard Norton](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0636280/) (they don’t come weirder, karate-er or Australianer) and the movie might be _Blood Street_ though I can’t find any info beyond that it was set in San Francisco.

Ah, it was Bloodmoon, all one word. And Gary Daniels (apparently I can’t tell English from Australian accents). Not carried by Blockbuster regardless, though. Ah well, good flick. Thanks anyway.
