B-Sides: The Talons of the Eagle Challenge
/may11/bsidess.jpg
This weekend’s B-Sides is the theme song to the 1992 direct-to-video action movie Talons of the Eagle. This song is not for your listening pleasure. This song is a dare – a challenge. Can you listen to the whole thing from beginning to end?
I have never seen Talons of the Eagle. Kind of surprising given it starred Billy Blanks and I was all about those cheesy direct-to-video action movies around the time this came out. The Devil’s Rejects‘ Priscilla Barnes co-stars, and here’s the plot according to the IMDb:
After three DEA agents are killed by Mr. Li (James Hong), martial arts champion Tyler Wilson (Blanks) is sent on assignment to Toronto and teams up with Michael Reed (Jalal Merhi). Wilson and Reed enter a martial arts tournament, where they end up saving Mr. Li from being killed by a rival crime boss. Li invites the two to join his staff. As Wilson and Reed get closer to the truth about Li’s operation, they gather the needed evidence but will have to escape Li, alive.
I stumbled upon this B-Sides by complete happenstance when I went to YouTube and decided to see what would come up if I typed in “Worst Movie Theme Song.” Is this the worst movie theme song of all time as the video’s upload page proclaims? Probably not. But it certainly makes a compelling argument.
You have been warned. Do you dare listen to “Talons of the Eagle” from the motion picture Talons of the Eagle? And if so, will you last all two and a half minutes before deciding your ears have suffered enough?
