Who's the BEST Kung Fu villian of all...?

[stormybman]

Ok, let's do this... Give me an idea of the all-time greatest Kung Fu Film villian, not actor, but the role, who played him, and why he was so cold blooded?
My selection I'll list later, and I hope we draw out unexpected
villian(s), don't forget to name the film. No Wu Xia.

"Do we fight alone..? Or, all together?!"

[Chinatown Kid]

My favorite villian would have to be Thunderfoot played by Hwang Jang Lee in Drunken Master. They say in the film he was so ruthless he would kill his own mother for money! :eek

Chang Yi :lol or Hwang Jang Lee :lol there,s not much in it for me,both play part very well.

[GwaiLoMoFo]

Kam Kong's blind "Master Of The Flying Guillotine". Self explanatory.

Honorable mention:
Jack Long's Ghostface Killer "Mystery Of Chessboxing"
Lo Lieh's Pai Mei from "Fist Of The White Lotus" & Executioners From Shaolin".
Tommy Lee as the albino hunchback in "Hot, Cool & Viscious"

[stormybman]

In my humble opinion, I feel it's a tie between Kam Kong's Blind Monk from MOTFG, and Lo Lieh's Pai Mei, from EFS, and FOTWL. Both these villians were seemingly, undefeatable, and overpowering. Their Kung Fu was top notch, and trickery was the only way to overcome them. White Brows, anyone would have to admit, could kick some serious butt! The Flying Guillotine/ Monk, was the coolest blind fighter since Zatoichi.


"Tell me the truth... no more lies!! If I turn myself over to you, will you leave the school alone?!"

[Chen Zhen]

u must mean Mark Long, gwailo......i agree, ghostface is the truth!

chang yi is an AWESOME villain in the victim..

and i dont think anyone can forget about Wang Lung Wei (fearless dragons) and Phillip Ko (the loot, challenger)

[morgoth]

Chang Shan, Chang Shan and Chang Shan, and I guess Hwang Jang Lee would be 4th for me.

[Chinatown Kid]

Hey, who set Ric on fire in that pic?!!! :rollin

[morgoth]

Opps, sorry Stormybman, I just noticed you are looking for best role. I go with Kam Kong in MAster of Flying Guillotine. That is the best acting performance I have have ever seen in a kung fu movie. Also JAck Long playing Abbotwhite in Ninja Hunter was pretty cool.

[dragon herb]

I will pick Whang In Shik as Master Kam in Young Master as the best role. If only he have had a little more minutes on the screen but whenever he is present it's classic.

Other "nice" villains I can think of:

Thunderlegs (Hwang Jang Lee) in Drunken Master. I almost was going to pick him as the best role, or letting him share the first place with Master Kam.

Peng Kong in Crazy Guy with the Super Kung Fu, I don't remember his name in the movie but he has a scar over his eye and it's a great role.

Lung Fei in Horse Boxing Killer, a real funny bastard that seems to enjoy making trouble. And I love his curly tousled hair combined with the moustache, he looks great! :lol

[rdenn]

hwang jang lee, chang yi, and wang lung wei. for me, and lung fei for his performance in dynamite trio he was so evil in that film and he fought with 1 hand.

[Chen Zhen]

^^hahaha lung fei also had the most badass haircut too lmao

[kow pad moo]

For camp villainy, let's not forget Shih Kien as Han in "Enter the Dragon." That kitty guillotine scene alone makes Kam Kong look like a creampuff in comparison. Yikes!

[theportlykicker]

Definitely Chang Yi in the Victim. For moderns, you can't get much more evil than Melvin Wong in Righting Wrongs.

[rdenn]

and good old chen sing in naked comes the huntress he sold his own freinds as slaves..evil bastard.

[morgoth]

Chang Shan in Of Cooks and Kung Fu is one of my favorite villain performances. The movie is not great or anythign but Chang Shan makes it worth watching.

[peringaten]

I like Eddie Ko's villainous character in We're Going To Eat You. Unique; a kuan-dao sporting cannibal leader who cries over Oedipus.

[kermit]

Hung Yu Tse from Avenging Eagle

A great villian that is brought to life beautifully by Ku Feng - the greatest kung fu actor of all time.

1.Lo Leih
2.Hwang Jang Lee
3.Chang Yi
4.Tommy Lee
5.Phillip Ko

[Cesare]

From what I've seen so far - Wang Lung Wei kinda stands out. Very charismatic, seems to be a good fighter (though I should point out that I can't usually tell the difference between fighter and pretender and in fact I don't care much *blush*) and above all - he is IMHO quite a decent actor. Each time I see him I like him a little bit more.

And - somebody has already mentioned it - the blind "master of the flying guillotine" was a very efficient villain. Really really creepy. And I very much liked his music theme. (Come to think of it... Music was generally quite well handled and used in that movie...)

[stormybman]

Chen Sing deserves an honorable mention for The Hymalayan.
Man, was he a dirty sonofab@#$*! in that movie, complete with the dastardly laugh after every literal backstab, doublecross, swindle, and, deception in the book. Take a look if you haven't seen the film, and there's a great finale of Kung Fu as well.

:smokin

"Whenever you're ready, I'll take on any Japanese here."

[edher08]

Oh, you just said what i was about to say.. Chen Sing in the Himalayan not only deserves an honorable mention, he's right there in the top 5.
Not only he was tough and strong Kung Fu wise, but he did everything that good villians does.
The Himalayan not only have the one of the best villian performances in the kung fu movies history, but you also get to see Tan tao Liang in top form And Angela Mao in one of her best roles.
A must see...

[stormybman]

A must see...

[chingdog]

Chang Yi in Traitorious
Yuen Shi Kwan in Master Strikes

[pressureworld]

Chang Yi without a doubt He's is as evil as the come and his performance is always on great

[Tosh]

I really liked Chang Yi in Phantom Kung Fu.

HJL in anything.

Lo Leih in Human Lanterns and then he was a real prick in Mad Monkey Kung Fu.

Jimmy Wang Lung-wei in 8DPF

[Black.Dragon]

1. Chan Sing
My all time favorite bad ass . That moustache is one of a kind. Only a rare few actors got Big Star credit and are only in the last few mins of the film, he sure did many times.

5.Hwang Jang Lee
His evil smerk is unforgettable. Your going to need special training to beat him

(Honoreble Mention)
Phillip Ko Fei
Wang Lung Wei

[Iron Boat]

I would think Wang Lung Wei deserve a bit more than an honorable mention

[Morgoth Bauglir]

Nice List Black Dragon. The comment about Hwang Jang Lee got me to crack up.


I would think Wang Lung Wei deserve a bit more than an honorable mention

More than Philip Ko?

Top 5 is too much for my brain to handle. Respect to people who can accomplish it. There's just no way I could leave some of my favs out of a villain list. Chang Shan, Chen Hung Lieh, Lung Fei, Eddy Ko, Yee Yuen, Yasuaki Kurata, Lee Hoi San, Chan Wai Man...

This is really VERY FUNNY !
But should it be the BEST VILLIAN or WORST VILLIAN in this case ?

Remarkably the WHITE HAIR fits the bill & is a NATURAL ! Maybe it is the VILLIAN we all LOVE TO HATE ??

Funny !! Athena ..♥

[Space]

Hwang Jang Lee, Lee Hoi San and Funk Hak On.

Honorable mention to Wong In Sik.

[WuxiaFan]

I would say Hwang Jang Lee, but that was before fellow member, moongirl, turned me on to Chang Yi. Check this out:
