i liked this movie,mainly just because of its entertainment value.there are some pretty funny moments,most of them unintentional,i imagine.it is also not very politically correct compared to most of todays movies.if you go into this movie expecting good acting,i think you will be disappointed.but,the movie does have some pretty good martial arts fighting scenes,though at times they are ridiculously absurd and unrealistic.i did like the different fighting styles shown in the movie.the sound effects are horrible,yet are great for their comedic value.the movie is very low budget and the plot is almost non existent.but for action and comedy,you can't go wrong with this movie.it is a classic and very hard to find,but if you come across it, you will likely be very amused,at the least.based on the fight scenes and the comedic value,i give "Kill or be Killed" 8/10*

I LOVED this movie. I am not a movie buff either. I caught this movie late at night and so did a friend of mine. We talked about it the next day by happenstance. We coined terms from it Like to be " Steve like" Or have "Steve like abilities". I though it was kick ass and would advise it to anyone. It is a perfect example of a Karate movie from the Late 70's. This movie was meant to be a bit comical in my opinion and it is fantastic. I was a big fan of Karateka on the Apple 2 and this game took me to a place that was not unlike the video game that kept my attention for hours on end. I see that several members of the production were involved with Karateka. I picked up on the similarities without even knowing it.Great Flick !!!!! I give it a perfect 10.

This is a another martial arts movie in my case a true classic. I've always wanted to see this movie when I was younger, but when times have changed, this movie was listed as a "must see" I've looked at video stores in the past, and had no luck until five years later. I've gotten that chance to see it, and it was worth it! It wasn't as violent like most martial arts films, and usually actions are mostly louder than words. The scenes speak for themselves. The weapons scene was a must. I remembered the sword and kama(sickle) fight, at first, I thought they were axes. When I got a closer look, I knew better. It was worth the watch. Then it was the final fight. The most fun scene in my opinion. It was between the hero and the huge guy. The hero was very swift and very cunning. And liked when he laid that flying sidekick on that huge guy. That made the title the way it is; "KILL OR BE KILLED" I rather Kill! If you're slow, you'll be KILLED! Check it out while you still can. It's for the martial arts minded. Rating 2.5 out of 5 stars.

This movie was absolutely awesome! Well, it was so ridiculous and absurd that it was actually pretty cool. Mind you that I watched this movie on a Spanish Language TV station at 2 o'clock in the morning and I don't speak any Spanish, but I really don't think that would have mattered. The action was so lame and mechanical that it was actually quite hilarious. I cannot remember the last time I laughed that hard, totally worth it to watch, I'm just mad that I missed the first 20 minutes and don't speak Spanish. Really, this flick is a Gem of the B-Movies, and the chick in it is totally hot! Check this out if you want to see one of the all-time greatest cheesy action flicks!
