We're punching a hole through the Video Dungeon's proverbial stomach this week (just like Ricky would have wanted us to) and talking the Hong Kong cinema cult classic - Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky! In the far flung future of 2001, all prisons have become privatized and are run like criminal organizations—forcing the prisoners to work themselves to the bone. Riki-Oh (also known as Ricky or Lik-Wong) is sent to prison after killing a drug dealer to avenge a friend and then makes it his mission to destroy the criminal empire from within. A martial arts master of the Hard Qigong style with a heart of gold, Ricky will stop at nothing to make sure evil is put down for good! Our pal Jenna Fryer joins us to break down everything Riki-Oh, including the manga, anime, and more.
