Wow I just saw "The Master of the Flying Guillotine" for the first time (anyone have some more karate flick suggestions)

[Arkitech]

This might be one of the best old school karate flicks I have ever seen. This movie had some of the most imaginative fighters ever filmed, I guess the acting and the plot of the movie is standard fare but the fight scenes and characters were unbelievable. Watching the guy with the elongated arms fight was a mind trip and of course the blind guy with the guillotine was incredible to watch as well.

Great flick

 

[rocadelpunk]

where'd you see it at?

theatre? rent? ...download :0

It was on one of the satellite channels a few days ago

Is that the one w/the fat bald guy that has the hat that he throws and it cuts your head off?

That rocks!!! I love old school karate flicks. I buy them at BestBuy like water...probably have about a dozen or so. I only buy the "double or triple feature" ones though. Three cheesy old school karate flicks for $9.99; can't go wrong!

*edit*
Or is it the one w/the little guillotine blade on a rope? He like, throws it and right after it cuts your head off, he yanks the rope back, and the blade flies back to him?

You can get better than The Seven Deadly Sins?

[ragazzo]

I miss watching them during the Saturday afternoons back in the 80's haha

Its the one where the old blind man has the guillotine on a chain. He throws it like from 50 feet away and the yanks the guillotine back to him. There was this one scene where a guy he was attacking was dodging the guillotine and the blind man was throwing it so fast it looked like bullets whizzing by. God that was a great movie

Has anyone ever seen any of the WuTang movies? I've been wanting to watch one of those but I never see them in video stores or on satellite.

Wait.. is this guillotine like a chain basket that sits on your head, and he pulls it with a chain? When you say guillotine, I think a full fledge guillotine in old skool France, but that would be silly to carry a bigass thing like that on a chain around.

The old guy had 2 kind one was round like a hubcap with blades on the edges attached to a metal chain. Then had one that was like a basket that he threw on someone's head and some how it would sever the neck. It was pretty wicked.

I enjoyed "once upon a time in china II" Great movie, I enjoyed I and III alot, but II was the best, i still get the music in my head sometimes.


Funniest karate flick ive ever seen. "Crippled masters" You should watch it, cracked me up all night. It came on latenite TBS a long time ago.

Kung-Fu guy 1 gets his arms cut off.
Kung-Fu guy 2 gets his legs burned up by acid.

Together they join forces to fight the evil warlord (with the long mustache of course) and become.... Dun dun duuuuun. The crippled masters.

"Dirty Ho" - I kid you not, this is the name of the movie. No, it has nothing to do with prostitutes. Great flick. I think it was the very first one to show a Kung Fu master using a hapless innocent as a tool for beating the crap out of another Kung Fu guy.

BTW, I've been looking for "The Proud Twins" which I saw in Hong Kong in 1979. Anyone know where to get a copy of this flick?

[blackdogdeek]

That and The 36 Chambers are sweet!

 

[isaacmacdonald]

not karate but Shogun Assassin is an awesome sword flick. Lot's of wu-tang clips were taken from it.

 

[Doggiedog]

Damnit! I saw the listing for it and was looking forward to watching it but forgot!
