What happened to the credit for Ed Parker? I don't understand how an actor can be on screen that many times and not get a credit. Ed Parker is one of the more recognizable martial arts experts to have played in film and yet the movie ignored his presence in the credits. What does a guy have to do to get a credit? Break up a desk with his bare hands? Oh, wait, he did that. I found it amusing that he showed up for the fight scene wearing a blazer with his International Kenpo Karate Association patch.

Agreed! Maybe it was supposed to be an 'uncredited appearance' which happens from time to time. Mind you, Ed Parker was listed in the credits for his appearance in 'Curse' [of the Pink Panther], which may have been because he actually had some dialogue in that film.
