Synopsis

Big Trouble in Little China tells the story of Jack Burton, a rational, wise-cracking, long-distance trucker, who finds himself in a dangerous situation when he decides to help his best friend Wang free his kidnapped fiancée, Miao Yin.

As Jack delves into the criminal underworld of San Francisco's Chinatown to rescue Miao Yin, he discovers the centuries-old Chinese sorcerer David Lo Pan is behind the kidnapping. The mystery of an ancient curse begins to unravel as Jack and his companions embark on a frenzied rescue mission in the heart of Lo Pan's dark labyrinth.

However, Lo Pan's deadly minions, blood-curdling supernatural horrors, and a trio of unstoppable Kung Fu masters stand in their way. The question remains: Can Jack save the girl from the magician's clutches and survive the perilous journey?
