Movie Ad of the Week: THE BAD AND THE BLOODY (1980)

THE BAD AND THE BLOODY, which Temple of Schlock investigator Mike MacCollum caught at the Skyline Drive-In back in 2015 and identified as DA XIAO TONG CHI / WIN THEM ALL (1973), opened at the St. Francis in San Francisco on January 11, 1980. Lo Lieh is not the star, but he does appear in the second half of this Condor Films double feature, BLACK HORNET, which is BO MING (1977) a.k.a. BATTLE OF SHAOLIN, THE DAMNED, and BANDITS, PROSTITUTES AND SILVER (The title of Xenon Entertainment's video release has been scrubbed from the IMDb, so here's the Worldcat entry: WU TANG HOE'S, THUGS AND SCRILLA).

Movie Ads of the Week: TOWING (1978) a.k.a. WHO STOLE MY WHEELS (1979) and FUN GIRLS (1980)

Almost seven years ago we did an Endangered List entry for Maura Smith's action comedy TOWING (Case File #94), a film worth revisiting since it's still MIA and we've recently found some better newspaper ads for it under all three of its titles. The above ad is from its Sioux Falls, SD opening as TOWING on May 24, 1978.

On August 10, 1979 it made a pit stop in Albuquerque, NM as WHO STOLE MY WHEELS?

Sporting a fake R rating, it pulled in to Tallahassee, FL as FUN GIRLS on November 28, 1980.
