About Do or Die (1991)

No filmmakers capture the playful chaos of action cinema’s Golden Age like Andy and Arlene Sidaris (HARD TICKET TO HAWAII). Criminal mastermind Masakana 'Kane' Kaneshiro (Pat Morita aka Mr. Miyagi from THE KARATE KID) captures Donna and Nicole, two undercover federal agents. But instead of killing them, Kane gives the duo a head start in a deadly cat-and-mouse game involving six other assassins — including Erik Estrada (CHiPs)! The sixth installment (!) of a series that includes MALIBU EXPRESS, PICASSO TRIGGER, SAVAGE BEACH, and GUNS, DO OR DIE is another over-the-top winner from exploitation cinema’s most eminent power couple.
