Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon is a 1985 martial arts parody film, featuring a predominantly Black cast, produced by Rupert Hitzig for Berry Gordy and directed by Michael Schultz. A critical disappointment, yet a financial success, upon its original release, The Last Dragon is now considered a cult classic. The film stars Taimak, Vanity, Julius J. Carry, III, Christopher Murney, and Faith Prince. The film was released in theatres by TriStar Pictures on March 22, 1985.
The plot, set in New York City, follows a black teenage martial arts student named Leroy Green, who is often referred to as "Bruce Leroy" (although he never actually calls himself that). With dreams of becoming a great martial artist like his idol, Bruce Lee, Leroy goes on a quest to achieve the highest level of martial arts accomplishment, known as "The Glow".
As its name suggests, it is a mystical energy that can be tapped into by a martial arts master. When a fighter's hands glow, he is one of the best in the world. When his entire body glows, he is the greatest fighter alive. On his journey to find "The Glow", however, Leroy must confront villains such as a crooked arcade mogul Eddie Arcadian (Murney) and the evil Sho'nuff, the Shogun of Harlem, from which he must also protect his younger brother Richie (Leo O'Brien) and his girlfriend, VJ Laura Charles (Vanity).
