I remember they used to have the Saturday afternoon Kungfu movies on channel 5 I think. ..in NY. . .I used to love them but now I watch them and they seem dated, moreso, with the voices dubbed in english. This was one of those movies.
Now, I prefer to read subtitles than hear bad dubbing. . .

...I've got the DVD.
And I'm not afraid to admit it.

Yup. It was the Saturday Afternoon Drive-in Movie. Channel 5 in NYC (before FOX). At 3pm. When most kids my age were out playing in the sunshine. I was home glued to my parents little black and white tv watching all the madness unfold. I still remember the theme song too. Great stuff.

They used to show that movie on TV every other weekend back in the day (or at least it seemed that way). Back when local stations filled off hours with B-movies instead of infomercials -- ain't progress grand?
