Grabbing an icon from Japanese folklore and putting a Taiwan reefer madness spin on it, this is the type of fantasy with exploding heads, tiny cocks and dangerous fire stunts filmmakers gave to their young audience. Plus creepy peach puppet in the 1987’s fantasy spectacle The Child Of Peach.

Podcast On Fire 202: Game Of Death

In the wake of Bruce Lee’s death, there was popularity at its peak and savvy producers, high profile or not, started to exploit the image of him by casting other people looking semi to not similiar at all. Hence your Bruce Le’s, Li’s, Dragon Lee and so forth. When Golden Harvest decided to try and structure a movie around Bruce’s unfinished movie Game Of Death, the result was big and high profile and find out in this episode how this attempt at honoring the late great Lee fares as several actors playing Lee (along with footage from elsewhere) gather for 1978’s Game Of Death. With Kenny B and East Screen West Screen‘s Paul Fox.

From Hong Kong to Spain and back to Hong Kong and back in time again, for this episode we follow the three brothers (i.e. Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao) as they take their martial arts action comedy formula to Spain and into a meal-van in Wheels On Meals. And we then transfer from 1984 to 1978 and onto the Shaw Brothers lot where director Chang Cheh were building iron men to fight each other essentially, in Crippled Avengers. The Venoms are back and are now handicapped fighters.
