A Taste of Cold Steel (1970)

Directed by Griffin Yueh Feng

Action

Overview

It’s a no-holds-barred battle to the death for possession of the invaluable Purple Sword. Assistant director Wang Po-yi also wrote this entertaining and exciting adventure which could have also been called “The Five Tigers” since there’s no doubt that this quintet is the highlight of the action. Huang Tsung-shun is “Fierce Tiger,” Hung Liu is “Drunk Tiger,” Hsu Erh-niu is “Lame Tiger,” award-winning actor Ku Feng is “One-eyed Tiger” and respected director/actor Wu Ma is “Sick Tiger” in a tangle of tussles and thrills

Length 78 minutes

Viewing Notes

A sequel to RAPE OF THE SWORD but only kinda? Regardless, plenty of fun martial arts battles with guest appearances by some familiar faces such as Ku Feng and Wu Ma as members of the Five Tigers, and a blink-and-you’ll-miss-him early appearance by Sammo Hung.
