Another fantastic Thai movie poster. This time for the 80’s wuxia classic and ninja filled, “Duel to the Death.”

Kung fu imagery that's good for the soul
A rogues gallery of white haired kung fu villains. And yes, that is Sammo Hung.
Jet Li taking on the towering Billy Chow in the final fight of “Fist of Legend.”
Original Chinese poster for “Northern Kicks, Southern Fists.”
If there’s one thing the Bruceploitation genre loved to do - other than cash in on Bruce Lee’s legacy - it was to put Bruce (or whoever was playing Bruce) in sexual scenarios.
There seemed to be this need to depict the man draped in naked ladies, perhaps to please the female fans or perhaps because Bruce himself never really took part in a sex scene. I suppose part of the reason was that the films were essentially tacky exploitation so tits were a must. Especially since the fighting wasn’t exactly the quality people came to expect from the man himself.
Original lobby card set for the non-Shaw Brothers film, “Fists and Guts” starring Gordon Liu and Lau Kar Wing. The latter also directed the film.
