These 2 movies may be different. There is no name of Lee Tso Nan in credit of a common director.

Seems that the HKMDB may have made a mistake with regards to BIG BOSS. Yes - Li Tso-Nan is the director of SHANGHAI MASSACRE aka BIG BOSS BIG but according to the HKFA the directors of BIG BOSS are Richard Cheung Kuen (Hong Kong) and Chin Chang-Liang (Taiwanese). Neither of those names match the KOFA's director Kim Jong-Seong therefore this is probably a fake co-production purchased from HK/Taiwan.

EDIT: Hmm... the Taiwanese DB lists Li Tso-Nan as director after all. I give up. At any rate none fo them match what's on offer at the KOFA. lol

A Director of Hong Kong side (or Taiwan) is "Lee Ching" but His name isn't found HKMDB.

This man is a actor..... http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=619&display_set=eng

Right. That's clearly not the correct person. The KOFA credited name is presumably bogus.

Re. Bloody Treasury Fight:

There's one name in the credits I haven't been able to match up:

Hung Chung-Kuo.

No reference on the HKMDB and the HKFA lists he/she only for this film.

I figure there's a chance this person might be Korean then...?

A translation of the Chinese name would be Hong Jong-Kuk.

But the KOFA lists only one actor under this name:

She's Chinese, not Korean, right? Just checking.

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?id=13968&display_set=eng

Chen Pi-Feng is Chinese. She was introduced as Chinese in "Blooded Treasury Fight" Korean poster.

Korean or Chinese? An unusually high amount of Korean films there, but maybe he just spoke the language or something? Or perhaps he had a Korean fan base? lol

Kao Chang / Mo Sa-Seong is Chinese too. "Mo Sa-Seong" is Hangul alphabet transcription of Kanji.

I think "Struggle Karate" is Punch & Block so this Swordplay is "Exterme Enemy" from actors' list but "EE" is Swordplay?

I've never seen either I'm afraid.

Falkor might have?

Recognise the snyposis?

Has to be one of the two going by the director/cast names.

Always good to come across new co-production finds. :)

Yongpal - can you translate the Korean title for VALLEY OF THE FANGS?

아랑곡의 혈투

The KOFA list it as Valley of the Fangs but there's no hangul title.

I got it down to something along these lines... A rang gok eui hyeoltub

"Arang gok ui hyeoltu". "hyeoltu" is correct so it isn't "hyeoltub"

Original poster

Other poster. This title is "아랑곡 A rang gok ".

I saw a Chinese language clip but I think this isn't a pure Korean movie.

Is ENTER THREE DRAGONS a co-production?

Also are these titles matches?

Eunggwon = Rage of the Dragon

Injamunsalsu = Secret Ninja, Roaring Tiger

I know the latter two are pure Korean, it's I'm just listing the Korean films marketed as Chinese also (in case you're wondering...)

No, Dragon Lee and Jang Il-Do (Philip Chang) were appeared on this movie but I think this is a Pure Hong Kong (or Taiwan) movie.

Eunggwon = Rage of the Dragon

Injamunsalsu = Secret Ninja, Roaring Tiger

Yes, that's right!

"Black Rain (Heuk-u)" as "Millennium Dragon"

http://hkmdb.com/db/movies/view.mhtml?id=8539&display_set=eng

A leading actor Choi Jae-Sung (Tsui Choi-Shing by HKMDB) as "Chui Jor Yin" and an Actress Lee Ye-Ji (Lee Ngai-Chi by HKMDB) as "Teresa" are Korean.　I have not seen Hong Kong version but Choi Jae-Sung and Lee Ye-Ji speak Korean in Korean version VHS.
