Lee Van Cleef is a safecracker in the old west, who accidentally kills a rich Chinese investor who leaves tattoos on the rear-ends of prostitutes.... Inside the safe, Van Cleef finds nothing but the pictures of four prostitutes, and promptly gets arrested....
Cut to China, Lo Lieh is a Kung Fu master who's about as convincing a the Power Rangers at a wrestling match... He's arrested & told his uncle is dead, & the money he was given by the government has disappeared...He's given a year to find the money or his family dies....
Lieh arrives in America just in time to talk to Van Cleef, & rescues him from the gallows....,
It's obvious early on that the tattooed derrieres are part of a puzzle, so it's a quest to find the four posteriors...
However, a psychotic priest catches on, & hires a fighter of his own......
Interesting mashup of the two genres, particularly towards the end, as most of the first hour is about butt jokes & culture clashes...
Some of the aforementioned jokes are well timed & got a giggle or two outa me, albeit, some of the racial tropes are a bit dated.....
