Synopsis for "Grunge: The Movie Part 1"
After taking Roxy to a Hong Kong action movie festival, Grunge decides he should make such a movie himself. Roxy is decidedly skeptical so, as they walk around a mall, he lists off to her all his rather dubious qualifications. He then begins making up a story for his movie on the fly. In “historical China”, a wandering swordsman (played by Grunge) and his sidekick Kiddo (played by Roxy) return to his native village to find all the residents slaughtered. The swordsman’s best friend (played by Burnout) dies in his arms, calling for revenge. A squad of evil, ninja-like warriors called Lin Kuei (played by DV8) suddenly attack and overwhelm the swordsman and Kiddo. Fortunately, they are saved by a Shaolin warrior nun (played by Caitlin), and together they wipe out the Lin Kuei in a lengthy fight scene. As the last one dies, he drops a business card belonging to the central villain, The Big Boss. The swordsman reads it and vows revenge.
