Starring: Wang Yu. Directed by: Lee Siu
This is a very rare Wang Yu movie and one that isn't too bad! It is also one of the few kung fu movies to take place in China's Northeast (Dongbei) region duiring the early 20th Century and one of a small number of movies besides "Joe Kidd" (a Clint Eastwood western) to feature the Mauser C-96 10-round automatic pistol. In fact, there are quite a few of those are used in the movie!
In "Iron Fist Adventure," Wang Yu plays T.S. Kwang, a man out for revenge after his master and members of his family were murdered some 10 years previously. Little does he know who was responsible...
This movie features a very complex (and honestly, sometimes confusing) storyline that is easier to understand if you know a little bit about the history of northeast China/Manchuria. However, if you're only watching this movie just to see Wang Yu's fight scenes, you won't be disappointed because they are pretty impressive!
If you are a fan of Wang Yu or just like rare kung fu movies, you'll probably want this one for your collection!
Also known as: The Iron Fist Adventures
