SMK Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share Posted February 26, 2011 Call it KING BOXER as is only proper! LOL, I first only knew it as "5 Fingers of Death", as that is the name that was on the DVD I had rented when I watched it, and I had NO IDEA about Kung Fu movies at that point, didn't even know what "Shaw Brothers" were yet....

I gotta go with SMK, Mike - as when I first saw it in the theater, maybe '74?, I vividly remember the lurid billboard splash: Five Fingers of Death!!! I think it was that pic with Lo with the glowing hands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
