Undefeatable is a 1994 martial arts movie starring Cynthia Rothrock, John Miller and Don Niam. The picture was a Hong Kong production, filmed in English on location in the United States. It was directed by Godfrey Ho, using the pseudonym Godfrey Hall.
Plot
The film follows Kristi Jones (Rothrock) who, along with her gang, take part in Mafia-run street fights to earn money for her sister's college education.
Meanwhile, an underground fighter by the name of "Stingray" is left by his wife and vows to find her. He begins seeing women in flowered dresses as his wife. He kidnaps them, rapes them, and gouges their eyes out before returning their bodies to the crime scene. Kristi's sister becomes one of the victims, so Kristi tracks down Stingray with the help of police officer Nick DiMarco (Miller), who is falling in love with her, and her sister's psychiatry tutor.
They soon track down Stingray, who has kidnapped the psychiatrist, and fight in a warehouse where he escapes. The psychiatrist is in the hospital and Stingray captures her. Kristi and the police officer chase him to a storage area where they do battle, mostly in hand to hand combat. Eventually Stingray is killed after losing both of his eyes.
The film ends at a funeral where Kristi tells her sister that they got him. Eventually the gang splits up, but Kristi has enrolled them all in college. Kristi has also been enrolled by her new lover and the film ends.
Internet reaction
The fighting scene from the climax of the movie was uploaded to the Internet in 2005. It received a lot of attention due to the stereotypical and heavily exaggerated fighting style, gratuitous gore, overacting and clichéd dialogue.
Undefetaable is largely based on the Sylvester Stallone movie titled "Cobra" from 1986. The plot lines are very similar. The main hero is a rebellious cop. The female lead is a bad girl gone good. The villain in Cobra is called The Slasher and in Undefeatable is called Stingray.
The final fight scene in both films finds the hero rescuing the kidnapped female from the villain in a warehouse. The villains knife is identical in both films. The final fight scene in both ends with the villain skewered on a hook and sent off to an incinerator.
Godfrey Ho basically stole the plot line form the Sylvester Stallone film.
