The Savage Five
Starring: David Chiang,Ti Lung, Chen Kuan Tai,
Danny Lee Sau-Yin
Director: Chang Cheh
Synopsis:
A pacifist village is beset by bandits in this
martial arts thriller. "Savage Five" hands-down

version of his Rover character from "Duel Of The
Iron Fist", and Ti Lung, looking incredible
here, is at his physical best. Accolades to Chen
Kuan Tai and Wang Chung in great sympathetic
roles, too. A kung fu classic where the actual
martial arts display takes a back seat to the
mesmerizing story.$19.95

Director: Ho Meng Hua
Description:
From the director who gave Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung early breaks in film, Ho Meng-hua teams up with Mr. Kung-fu hero, David Chiang, in a funky, over the top, martial art chiller based upon a secret kung-fu technique that is also the film's English title, Shaolin Hand Lock. Fans and non-fans of the genre will elate to again see Chiang match fists with Shaw's number one villain, Lo Lieh. $19.95 |
