Member falkor Posted July 13, 2008 Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 For the following IFD/Filmark releases, where HK/ninja footage has been added, can you figure out which country the original footage was produced in? Bionic Ninja (featuring Chan Lau from Bruce Le's Cobra) Perhaps I will return to this topic sometime in the future with other movie anomolies.

Member Bruce Long Posted July 13, 2008 Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 Looks like a Hong Kong cast to me. A lot of those actors are also in "Daring Kung Fu Refugee" so that's probably the source film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member falkor Posted July 13, 2008 Author Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 Thanks Bruce! Does Born To Fight (Godfrey Ho) seem like a HK movie? I think it clearly must be, but then I'm not 100% sure, only 99%. You know what Godfrey's credentials are like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member falkor Posted July 13, 2008 Author Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 This Born A Ninja is a strange film. At first I thought they used some Meng Fei Taiwanese footage or something, but it seems Meng Fei genuinely starred in a couple of IFD Ninja films in 1987.

Looks like it was filmed on videotape, which would probably mean it was originally a TV movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member falkor Posted July 13, 2008 Author Member Share Posted July 13, 2008 Thanks for the feedback; I'll make a note of it on my website for tomorrow's update. Perhaps Meng Fei did a Ninja TV series, and IFD used the footage to make 2-3 movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKMDB title Angel Mission http://hkmdb.com/db/movies/view.mhtml?id=7256&display_set=eng and from the cast I assume that it is indeed a HK movie.
