The Shaw Brothers Studio and Ho Meng Hua unleashed their deadly decapitating flying machine film “The Flying Guillotine” in 1975 and it was a hit. However released in 1978 due to several actors dropping out and rewritten during production, their problematic official follow-up almost died a horrible death. Meanwhile, Jimmy Wang Yu was quick to let loose his action packed but outrageous flying guillotine related version “One Armed Boxer Vs the Flying Guillotine” which was in fact a sequel to his “One Armed Boxer” (1971). Acknowledged in the West as “Master of the Flying Guillotine” it went on to become a cult favorite with fans.

When it comes to making features like this one, i love the idea of coming up with my own personal “100 Great Kung Fu Movies” of all time. It is tough choosing just 100 because you know there are many more great Kung Fu movies that are not on the list.
I have decided that to make the list, a movie must have a few hand to hand moments during fight scenes in the movies chosen. If for example its mainly sword play with one fight scene hand to hand it won’t make the list. Its old school “style” Kung Fu movies, not modern day settings.
I understand everyone will have their own personal favorites and some may not agree with my list and that’s fine because it’s nice to have different opinions on this genre which keeps it fresh and alive when having good debates.
Anyway, thank you...

This is a run down of my Top 40 kung fu movies of the 1970′s. There were so many great films in this era, that i just hope i do this list some justice. The movies chosen are just my personal choice, i understand others might have different views.
Any of the movies that make the Top 40 list must have something special to make it in the first place. So i hope you enjoy my Top 40 Kung Fu movies.
