STRIKE OF THUNDERKICK TIGER:

I'm pretty sure I've seen the box on the shelf at either Movies Unlimited or Video Boutique back in the day. Sadly both stores are long gone and I never rented it.

Is it any good? What's the story behind this one?

[ThunderScore]

It's memorable for me because of the over the top performance of Casanova Wong, who plays the main bad guy dressed in (IIRC) a black leotard with a scarf around his neck who occasionally kisses his henchmen. Probably not one of Ka Sa Fa's favorite roles...

Say what?! LOL Okay... Is it a South Korean flick? Does Casanova have good action in it (in between the smooches)?

[Asmo]

According to HKMDB it's South Korean and also has the alias "My Name is 'Twin Legs'".

Ive never seen this film, only a few clips used in the Top Fighter documentary. This was released in the U.K by the long defunct Hong Kong Connection (IVL) budget label.

Thanks for the heads up DragonClaws! I just picked up a new sealed copy of this from amazon for £0.10! If that's the price to watch Casanova Wong in a leotard, then so be it.

[DragonClaws]

No problem, the HK Connection titles are all sourced from old VHS releases, mainly from the old VPD catalogue. From what clips Ive watched its worth 10p. Ive seen this title a lot in Charity shops but never picked it up. I'm running out of storage space so had to dispose of a few titles and cut back on buying films.

[FrankBolte]

the fact alone that the movie was shot in the 70s in HK is reason enough to watch it...

[KUNG FU BOB]

Love the photos! Thanks for sharing man. Casanova looks crazy in that scarf.

Because of you starting this thread I picked up a copy , but I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

I got through watching this one recently, pretty entertaining stuff. Casanova Wong running around in a leotard and tights, I had to rub my eyes a few times. Check out my review below -

I read several times online that in the Korean Version of Strike of The Thunderkick Tiger Dragon Lee makes a cameo. Ive only seen the English dubbed version and can not spot Dragon Lee in it. If anyone has any info or links, please post them. I like finding rare Dragon Lee appearances, he is my favorite Bruce Lee Clone

[SMK]

Is this the same version you have?

Yea, i dont even own the movie, i only watched it on youtube, off of that link. if Dragon Lee is in that one let me know at what part, i couldnt spot him when i was wathcing it tho

Personally, Charles Han was not as inspiring to watch in this movie compared to his earlier films.
