MARTIAL ARTS FANS HAVE CAUSE TO REJOICE
what more could you say about a film in the top 10. this stars one of my favorite actors jimmy wang yu and a collection of all-stars like lung fei (win without a knife yakuma), lau kar wing, jack long, kuo chui (the one fighting lau kar wing), kam kong (flying guillotine fung zing wu chi), wong wing san (yoga master and arguably the greatest fight choreographer ever and brother of wong chi sang). the characters are unforgettable and the fight scenes choreographed by none other than the lau bros. (lau kar leung aka liu chia liang and lau kar wing aka liu chia yung). the music is banging and this movie inspired all types of famous heads like the wu-tang clan, quentin tarrantino, the street fighter video game creators, and others. hands down the best martial arts film of 1975. jimmy wang yu never got the credit in my opinion for creating such freaky and memorable characters and movies all throughout his career. dating back from the 60's he was in alot of swordplay films including asia's 1st $1 million dollar grossing film "the one armed swordsman, golden swallow, return of the one armed swordsman, the chinese boxer and return of the chinese boxer throughout the course of the 70's when he left shaw bros. and went independent. the thing that amazes me is that he isnt a real martial artists he's a swimmer but his athletic ability is sensational and makes for his lack of martial arts skills. also this movie has a great commentary track and the dvd transfer is little sloppy but worth the purchase.

Action packed bad transfer from the 1970s
"Master of Flying Guillotine" is a Chinese guy looking to off all one-armed Kung Fu masters in this somewhat poorly dubbed and transferred 1975 action film. There isn't much good to say about either the dubbing or the transfer, as the screen fades to shades of gray and black occasionally during the film. <
> <
>There is much good to say about the high octane action that transpires throughout every minute of this classic flick, including a lengthy scene during a Kung Fu tournament where the losers of individual battles often died. <
> <
>This is a loud, gory, bloody action film that will satisfy anyone looking for an action fantasy anytime, anyplace. Hardly a moment goes by without some exciting form of fighting action incluidng the titled character, who owns a thingamabob that's connected to a chain. He throws it at people, it lands on them, covering their head, the saw engages and...there's the title of the movie! <
> <
>Buy, rent or program this if you like action, action, action and don't mind seeing 50-100 Chinese men bite the dust in gory action circa 1975.

2-disc, but no need for it.
So thisd costed me like 16.99 at best buy, and it was a decent deal. My friend borrowed the 1-disc and I haven't seen him............., I don't have it and got this. <
> <
>So I wanted to point out that this has a DIFFERENT commentary than the one-disc. It is very informative cause it has a cinese guy who is an editor at kungfumag.com or something. So he joins the 2 white guys from last time and I wish I had the other version(or can get it back), so then i could watch part 1 and 2 back -to back. Yeah, i'm a pretty big geek. Also, the interviews with JIMMY WANG YU himself is pretty good. <
> <
>Everyones seen the movie, so you know what you are getting. <
>But I do believe that this has the greatest acting performance by a kungfu actor of all-time. That is why they gave this a rare correct name-master of the flying guillotine. That is why I liked the movie, but nobody ever seems to mention it. He has the best kung fu skills in the movie, but he is also the best actor. <

>I saw a comment saying that the english dub doen's work, so what.
