That has to be one of the laziest fight scenes I've ever seen.

Hi @Drunken Monk

 

The choreography and how its executed?, or the speed in which the action takes place?, or all three?.

 

It's not Yeun Woo-Ping, or Corey Yuen, but I don't dislike this old-school style. Not that the above clip, would be rated among my persoanl favorite 70's, action set peices. The guy took out a whole gang in just under a minute, which isnt bad.

Don't get me wrong, it's entertaining. It just seems very, very slow in comparison to some of that era's fight work. Heck, even when compared to some Bruceploitation films. Again, I'm not complaining. I was smiling when I type about it being lazy.

You could say so, only with a higher pitched voice, and slightly more crazed.

 

 

Thanks to @rdenn, for sharing this video on his YouTube channel.

Kino lorber will be releasing Revenge Of the shogun Women in america as BR..It`s on youtube as heavily shortened version and bad quality. Took  a look and action is a bit on slow side but otherwise looks like can be ok flick. Might be worth checking out when disc is released...good thing in Kino releases is they are available at amazon so foreign customers do not need to go for special shop and pay hefty shipping costs..

Superb news, and I really appreciate you posting it here. Would you mind adding the same news to the following thread too?. Just for those on the forum wanting to keep track of new releases, of older titles.

Seven Steps of Kung Fu

1979

Great pace and kung fu styling, with an array of excellent characters featuring Cheng Tien Chi, Chia Kai, and Chang Shan.

@Zhan Gua Ren That one's a pretty cool movie. 😎

And like countless Fu movies of the time, it has Lung Fei in it. Back when I was in college, there was a point I'd watch at least one Fu movie a week and he seemed to be in every single movie I watched - to the point I still recognize him even though I haven't seen a movie of his in close to 4 years.

Recently sat and watched Tan Tan-Liang face of against a very golden Lung Fei, in this Taiwanese indie.
