Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one to Flavortown, and that has made all the difference.


I know it’s not specifically an old school Kung Fu film in the traditional sense but Bloodsport is absolutely one of my favorites that fits in that genre. Bolo Yeung rules.

I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.

Yeeeeeeeesssssss!!! Not only does it have a Dracula (euro style non hopping vampire) in it but he kicks a dude's head off and drinks from the blood fountain! One of my all time favourite moments in Kung Fu cinema.

Ancient Kung fu master’s secret technique involves him ascending his scrotum. It’s defeated by a one inch punch technique. Utterly ridiculous.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Master of the Flying Guillotine is crazy as hell and really fun, definitely worth a watch.

Not an old movie but one that channels that feeling perfectly - Kung Fu Hustle. It's a martial arts movie mixed with a live action cartoon mixed with The Naked Gun or Airplane, that's the only way I can think of to describe it. Some seriously good fights in there, my personal favorite is a tailor that uses the iron rings he hands clothes with to create these like... super punch gauntlets.

Both of these movies are so cool and fun. Kung Fu Hustle has soooo many neat characters.

Knockabout is one I really like. It's a late 70s one with Sammo Hung.

It also has one of the most baffling plot twists. And half the fun is in the weird dubbing.

Jackie Chan fights a bunch of Imperialist Caucasians who are stealing a bunch of Chinese artifacts while he's bombed out of his mind.

I liked the old school doughy Zatoichi who blinked way too often, but all the newer ones are kinda 'meh'.

They're not a perfect fit for the OP, since they're certainly a lot less colorful than Shaw Brothers films, but I think most people who like one will usually like the other.

You're thinking Legend of Drunken Master.

The original is just an excuse to beat-up assholes/overpaid assassins (also important!
