| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Hardcase and Fist |
|---|
Hardcase and Fist begins with undercover cop Bud McCall (Ted Prior) getting incarcerated in Folsom Prison in order to prevent an imprisoned mob flunkey from providing a false alibi for mob boss Vincent (Vince Barbi). But Vincent has arranged for Tony Marino, one of his henchmen played by Tony Zarindast who also wrote, directed and produced the film, to be locked up in Folsom to get rid of McCall who turns out to be Marino's old army buddy. Eventually, McCall teams up with prison-savvy cellmate Eddy Lee, played by real life martial arts instructor Carter Wong, to stop Vincent and rescue Marino's girlfriend from mob abductors.
