Movie Ad of the Week: THE SABERTOOTH DRAGON VS. THE FIERY TIGER (1978)


Here's a U.S. release ad for JIANG NAN BA DA XIA/THE GREATEST PLOT (1977), a kung fu flick with gory highlights provided by lethal booby traps and flying guillotines, plus one memorable sequence in which a major character commits suicide by plucking out his own eyes and ripping out his own throat! The battered English-dubbed print we watched, taken from the Alpha Blue Archives VHS tape, runs about 89 minutes and looks like horses dragged it to hell and back. The onscreen title is THE SABER TOOTH DRAGON VS. THE FIERY TIGER.
