Bagong Hari (1986)
Born into poverty, Addon Labrador, a tugboat worker, is initiated to life's harrowing journey when his genial existence is ruptured by the sudden illness of his mother. Broke and burdened with a huge hospital bill, he reluctantly agrees to participate in a game of death which offers a large sum of money to the victor. Defeating his opponent only earns the ire of Rex, the murderous son of La Paz governor Nenuca Cailles, who, to avenge his loss and humiliation, orders his goons to abduct Addon. With a gun on his head, Addon finds himself as a pawn in the vicious battle for political supremacy between rival groups vying for the governor's office. At one point, Addon is tricked into killing his own father, whom his captors have identified as political traitor and opportunist. Addon is later ordered salvaged but he manages to escape. In retaliation, his mother is ordered killed and his fiancee tortured. Addon fights back, and in a final rampage destroys his enemies in a hair-raising show of fist blows and firepower.
