KUNG FU flix.

Post by benjuro »

I LOVE the genre.
Everything from the cheesy 70's fly-by-wire and cardboard prop flix, to the 60's long-ass buildup-to-the-battle-royale-at-the-end b&w samurai films, to the newer digitally enhanced martial arts showcases. Love 'em all.

SO, I'm hoping we can share some recommendations, because my favorite way to spend a saturday morning is in my pj's with coffee and donnie yen or bruce lee or chow-yun fat or jet li :success: and I'm always looking for a good movie I haven't seen.

I'd have to start us off with 36th Chamber of Shaolin. If you're at all into martial arts flicks and haven't seen it, GO FIND IT NOW.

True. One might say a better watch.

Also, not Kung Fe per se, but perhaps one of my favorite dudes with a sword:

Those Zatoichi flicks are awesome!
I haven't seen these others though, psyched to get some new titles!

The Mystery of Chessboxing

Basically if it is a Wu Tang Clan Song or Album it is a tight movie.

Agreed. Some fantastic recs.
Achtane's "Sanjuro" is actually what influenced my username...Yojimbo is a counterpart, also excellent.

More recently, the remake of 13 Assassins was pretty sick.

True. Wasn't too keen on the CGI, but other than that it rocked pretty hard.
