- Synopsis:
Throughout his long and storied career, writer, director, and producer Nico Mastorakis has brought his own unique take on American genre cinema, filled madcap violence and zany humour, and built himself up as a B-movie icon. Take a martial arts school, throw in a snotty rich kid, a clumsy geek, a paranoid survivalist, two beach joggers, a cool secret agent, and a mime, and you get 'Ninja Academy' (1989), a madcap karate comedy like no other starring Gerald Okamura (Big Trouble in Little China). In 'The Naked Truth' (1992), Mastorakis pays homage to a certain Billy Wilder film when two friends decide to pass as women and pose as makeup artists for a local beauty pageant to elude a vicious mafia boss. It seems like the perfect cover, until the mafioso gets the hots for one of them! - Actors:
