Viewing Notes
Been wanting to see this for a long time. Thought I owned it but apparently not. Was happy that El Rey scheduled it. Didn’t realize this was another anti-Japanese movie a la kung fu vs karate with evil Japanese taking out kung fu schools. Big theme for this time period in HK martial arts flicks.
Pretty much a vehicle for Jimmy Wang Yu and Lo Lieh (as the villain again). Super bloody and violent yet lacks finesse. Can see why this is a celebrated movie from the Shaws but not a particularly great kung fu movie. Still a good flick.
