The reason I created a page for this movie is because of where it was shot. It was filmed at Concord Taekwondo America in Concord, North Carolina, which is one of the core schools of the Taekwondo America organization to which I belong. Many of the cast are students in the school who have worked out with and competed against.

The school is owned by Sean Baxter (Roy Powers in the movie), a friend of mine who for many years has been a beta tester and user of my TaskMaster martial art school management software. The development of TaskMaster has been a long, arduous undertaking and Mr. Baxter has had to kick start my butt many times over the years to keep me going.

The Foot Fist Way

The Foot Fist Way is a very funny low budget film about a strip-mall Taekwondo school owner, Fred Simmons (played by Hot Rod’s Danny McBride), an egomaniacal dolt who is self-deluded, obnoxious, and bullying, particularly with small children and women. His behavior may make you cringe, but he is often hilarious. As a Taekwondo instructor, he espouses the tenets of Taekwondo as piously as a preacher does the Ten Commandments, but the he behaves as an egotistical moron.

Simmons is a small-time, out-of-shape. 4th degree black belt who fancies himself as the “King of the Demo,” still brags about the championship he won in 1991, and who idolizes a dopey martial arts/movie star named Chuck "the Truck" Wallace (Ben Best), the 8-time undefeated champ and star of the "Seven Rings of Pain" trilogy
