U.S. Catman: Lethal Track (1990)
One half of the movie follows a guy named Sam and his friend Gus. Sam gets scratched by a radioactive cat in a fight with some wacky drug addicts and achieves amazing super powers. He then puts on a stupid costume and decides to fight some bad guys using his new powers, including a crazed priest named Cheever. The other half of the movie is a about a whole bunch of Asian people that are just beating each other up for no reason, including a tall guy with an eyepatch and a woman that looks like a man. They have no real purpose in the movie, and seem to just be throw in.

How sad is this?
Don't Believe the Hype
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
...and everything you shall have as long as you maintain a relatively high alcohol to blood ratio for the next 90 minutes. See, the Catman series was bred through the glorious days of Hollywood tax shelters. No one wanted to make money here, actually profit was a detriment, so only truth survived. I kid, as there is no truth here, only a mixed up story of radioactive cats, recreational baseball players & gunfights.I don't lie when I give this a 7...though it does take a little helping hand to get there. Turn down the volume, throw on your mix album of choice (mine are "2 many dj's" or "Spank Rock") & rock out. With original soundtrack intact we're looking at a 3.2 or so. Good luck & let me know
This movie was fantastic, as a fan of martial art movies I would have to say that this film was in my top five. Tas Lehozcky is a magnificent actor I can not believe he hasn't starred in more movies. This film is recommend to any fan of the martial arts genre. ***** also suggest, Catman: Boxer's Blow!! I actually had the honor of meeting Tas once. The stories he told about making the movie and traveling around Europe are amazing, and very entertaining. He also talks a lot about his family and how close they are to each other. We stayed in touch for about a month and then he moved on; he is one of the most free spirited people I have ever met. Tas if you ever get on and read this contact me. I would love to hear from you. Love, your devoted fans
While in NYC one day, myself and my brother saw this DVD in a dollar bin and we cracked up at the cover. He bought it. We didn't watch it until about a week later back in Michigan, where we live.This is, without at doubt, the one of the funniest things that isn't supposed to be funny I have ever seen. There are so many parts that I think are incredibly so odd... I don't even know what to say.The man gets scratched by a radioactive cat and gets superpowers. He somehow just has a costume and has a "Cat Computer" that is never shown in the movie. He fights this crazy priest and his minions, who are hilarious.Plus, there is a second plot going on that literally has nothing to do with the first and never joins up. There is no reason for it. Absolutely none. It's incredible.It's amazing. If you EVER see this and enjoy things that are bizarre, for the love of god buy it.
My friend bought Catman at a local store and ever since Catman has become The Greatest Movie ever made in the history of all that exists. The man who wrote the script for this movie was a genius. The actors were also geniuses in their own way.This movie had me and my friends laughing for months. I mean, this movie never gets old. No matter how many times you watch it, you will crack up every time at one of the characters witty remarks. To finish my review, if you want to see a movie that will make you laugh until you throw up, see Catman in Lethal Track.
