Fatal Deviation

Fatal Deviation (1998)

Action

Announcement

Ireland has given the world so much. I mean, you've got the Pogues, Samuel Beckett, Guinness, Sinéad O'Connor...ME. Despite the richness of Irish culture, one thing remains missing, or at least did until 1998, and that is an Irish martial arts film. James Bennett wanted to change all of that, and so in collaboration with a few other people, wrote, directed, produced and starred in his own movie, which we will be watching tonight: FATAL DEVIATION. Made for IR£8,900 (which was about $11,500 at the time) and shot on video, Fatal Deviation almost immediately became known as the worst movie Ireland had ever produced, or possibly just the worst movie ever. There's only one way to find out! See ya tonight at 6:30!

Description

A young kenpo karate martial artist returns home after ten years in reform school on a quest to find out who murdered his father. He is befriended by an old monk and a local Irish beauty. His search takes him to the prestigious Bealtaine Martial Arts Tournament. Together with his past, the good guy is drawn into conflict with the local drug baron and his son, and the conflict makes the young man face his father's death in a way he could never have imagined.
