I was an extra in this made for TV movie and I am wondering where I can find a copy of this? I was only 12 or 13 at the time, now I'm 26!!! This was my first acting experience! I am in a scene walking out of a cemetery. Where do I get a copy, I would love to see this. Apparently I need to have a full time lines of text in order to post this, I really am just looking for someone to respond on where I can find this movie. From what I remember about this movie, when I was an extra 16 years ago, is that Rebecca Gayheart was absolutely beautiful, back then she was know as the "noxema girl" I also knew her from my beloved Beverly Hills 90210 where she was Dylan's love interest for a few episodes. When I was the 12 year old extra in the movie, I was too nervous to ask for her autograph because I thought she might laugh at me. The next day my dad ran into her at our Norfolk International Airport and knowing I was too shy the day before to ask, he got her autograph and told her the story how I met her the day before and was too shy to talk to her. She gave my dad an autograph for me and then a few days later I saw her on a talk show and she made a shout out to her little sister, Rachel. I was so excited, because that of course is my name too!!! Where do I find the movie?Does anyone know?!!!!

This was the series that introduced me to the martial arts of Russel Wong. I was pretty amazed that such sophisticated looking actor can do such good kung-fu action. He looks like a yuppie from Silicon Valley or a stock broker in Wall Street, but when he starts moving, oh, look out ! This series was unique in that an Asian actors were the main feature of the story. This doesn't happen often in Hollywood TV making. As such, the series maintained good mixture of scenes outside of Asian habitats, and wasn't confined only to say the Chinese community or China town as the back ground of story line. Russel Wong did carry his part well which I'm sure helped expand his career. If the plots were little more action oriented, like some of Chow Yun Fat's Hong Kong movies, this series would have been even better. Since seeing this series, I started to look for Russel Wong's name on movies, and I'd say that I haven't been disappointed too often when he shows up to do his kung-fu action.

There have been many TV shows based on martial arts action. Most, if not all, do not last. As a kung fu enthusiast I loved Vanishing Son 1,2 & 3. Good story with some killer kung fu with no CG or obvious camera tricks. Too bad it is inrcedibly hard to find. I have it on tape, thank the Lord for that! It was a nice platform for the Noxema Girl,Rebecca Gayhart, to make a nice leap into acting.Russel Wong has been around for a while and took another stab at martial arts TV with the short lived "Black Sash." Needless to say it was terrible. Also, Marcus Chong AKA Tank from the first Matrix was a big part of Vanishing son also...

It is a very well done movie. It has a good story and awesome casting. It is one of the best Martial Arts movies that I have ever seen. The fight scenes were great, and fit into the story. They were not there just because they needed a fight scene. I highly recommend this movie!
