Remember ... or ever knew? Tom Laughlin.

Ya his movies were pretty cheesy,the acting even worse but Mr Laughlin actually knew his stuff! He was trained by a Korean Master and did all the fight scenes.

Billy Jack goes to Washinton was almost as bad as the last gunfighter,both tied for the title of no need to see..... :devil But as a kid I must confess to having watched every one of his later movies,he had a small career as a B actor in the mid 50's and I even saw a couple of those.

Mr Laughlin.... :angel:

Yeah, I was there in 1971 but like I said the movie sucked so why would I remember?

I didn't say you weren't there. I'm wondering why you bothered reading
the credits if you didn't like the movie one bit. He was never a big name.
