Description:
An ancient evil has been unleashed. Hope is diminishing, and not even Goku seems to be able to end this reign of terror. Time has become a vicious enemy and with the world at stake, someone must step up and fight... but who? Available on DVD for the first time!

Amazon.com:
Wrath of the Dragon (1995), the 13th--and final--Dragon Ball Z movie, is also known as Dragon-Fist Explosion!! If Goku Can't Do it, Who Can? Teen-aged Gohan rescues an old man threatening to commit suicide, who turns out to be Hoy, the last of an evil race of aliens. He tricks the gang into finding the Dragon Balls and asking Shenron the Dragon to open a sealed music box--releasing both the hero Tapion and the monster Hirudegarn. Trunks is dazzled by Tapion, and works to befriend the elfin alien. Hoy plans to use Hirudegarn to destroy Earth, but Tapion and his magical ocarina hold the monster at bay. When the megalomaniac Hoy overcomes Tapion, it's Goku, Gohan, and the rest of the Super-Saiyans to the rescue! Although it's barely an hour long, Wrath of the Dragon delivers some snazzy special effects and plenty of the rock 'em sock 'em action Dragon Ball fans expect. (Rated TV PG, suitable for ages 8 and older: violence)--Charles Solomon

- Probably the best DBZ movie for effects and storyline.
Wrath of the Dragon is definitely an alternate storyline. However this is the case because it is directly linked to the Trunks storyline. Without giving a spoiler, you find out the origin of the sword that Trunks carries in the series. In the manga which gives more details, young Trunks, in his timeline, defeated the monster at a very high cost to the planet. Of course, this movie is the "what if" Goku survived after Majin Boo and faced the monster.

- Terrific end to a series.
This is the last movie of the Dragon Ball Z series. As every true Dragon Ball Z fan knows the timeline of the TV series and the timeline of the movies do not go hand in hand. The movie "Wrath of the Dragon" serves the purpose of not only closure of the series, but also answers a peculiar question of one of the character, we see how does Trunks obtains the sword that he will later use to kill Freeza and King Cold.
As everything Dragon Ball Z is entretaining and exiting. Great fights, and great ... Read More

- wrath of the dragon
Overall,despite some issues,this is a brilliant film. It looks gorgeous (especially when goku fires the super dragon fist and when tapion is summoned). Also, I think that the story is very strong and sort of mimics the majin buu saga, an ancient and very powerful evil being reborn. It even has a babi sort of character in it named hoi, the alien whio summens the monster hirudegarn.
The story could have happened in the DBZ universe. like fusion reborn it could have taken place in the ten years between ... Read More
