Another of the bad guys was a master at kicking.Anyway, the only school in particular I remember one of the good guys being trained in (and it was to combat the kicking master bad guy) was a school based on real close combat and staying close to an object ... that is, stay close to the body of the kicker and perpetually pivot around him and it is more difficult for him to kick you ... and giving short, powerful double handed strikes with the palm or with the hands to penetrate into the opponents stomach!At the end of the movie only two (three?) of the combined heroes/villians survive. Somehow the town is invaded by a horde of troops with polearms and bows and arrows. The quarterstaff guy (my favorite) leapt into the arrow and knocked aside a horde of arrows fired at him while fleeing, but the second time he was turned into a pincushion. The movie ends with the survivors fleeing through the woods.Sorry for the very general description, but that is all I remember. Any feedback would be appreciated!</blockquote>
