Jimmy Wang Yu is the White Dragon. A one man wrecking crew with his steel spear aka "six feet of silver death."

Sure, Wang Yu has been in a ton of classics, but this one is solid on the trash scale. Bad dubbing, missing footage, scratchy transfer, wacky sound effects...blaze it up cause it's all here.

The White Dragon must save the Chinese nation from tyrannical destruction all by himself. The leads us to a strong 30 minute grand finale of Wang Yu spearing suckers to death. Zero dialogue in the second half, just killing. That's the way I like it!

When our hero spears an enemy through the chest they don't bother to make it look real. It's the obvious hold the spear under the armpit trick.

The White Dragon fights General Tai in the final battle with a shocking ending.Another noteworthy thing is the horrible 80's prog rock song in the opening credits. The band is called Flood and the song soooo doesn't fit in this flick!

Another ass kickin' trailer...strictly droppin' gems on y'all.

What we got right here is a martial arts/ spaghetti western hybrid. That's right karate and gunplay together at last and fuckin' shit up! Starring Lee Van Cleef (The Good, The Bad and The Ugly) and Lo Lieh (Five Fingers of Death) both searching for the same treasure.

This is another film that influenced Tarantino, specifically a scene where the gunfighter reads a man a bible passage before killing him.
In one scene, Van Cleef autographs a chicks ass. I'm going to put that on my list of things to do before I check out. And of course, autographing a chicks ass comes right after I blow a line off her belly. Then and only then, I can say I lived.

Here's the karate choppin' gun shootin' trailer...catch y'all tomorrow with another piece of classic trash.

Director Chang Cheh and producer Run Run Shaw bring us this hard hittin' kung-fu film. The story revolves around a young fighter who travels to Singapore to make a name on the streets.

This flick may start off slow, but it ends with a battle to the death! I saved you the trouble and posted the grand finale below...cause I'm good like that.

Boxer From Shantung inspired Quentin Tarantino. Who re-created the teahouse scene for the Kill Bill 'House of Blue Leaves' sequence.

Throw a mask on these bad guys below and PRESTO you got The Crazy 88's!
This is hands down the bloodiest kung-fu film of the early to mid seventies. Do yourself a favor and watch the ass whoopin!
