  • Terrible Delights #125: Buddha's Palm
    Sep 24 2025

    This week's pick to end season five continues our tradition of choosing a very fun and confusing Shaw Brothers film with 1982's Buddha's Palm. Points of interest include an ultra extendable mega leg, neon hand lasers galore, a boy that can shoot acidic goo from his face goiter, and the EAST ISLAND CHIEF!

    We also induct four more folks into the Terrible Delights Hall of Fame: Linnea Quigley, Joe Spinell, William Girdler, and Sonny Chiba.
