Hi
This is a very interesting forum. I've always watched "Kung fu" flicks since the mid 70's on t.v. and actually saw Enter the Dragon at a theater.
Anyway, during the early seventies, maybe middle, the local CBS station showed a series of Kung Fu films on late night. One of them was "The Seven Golden Vampires", another was "Cooking Kung Fu" which really was a very well done and thought out film. (I still have a pretty good recording of it that I made off the t.v. and watch it probably every year or two).
I've lately been buying films on DVD from Amazon, etc. and have been looking for one "series", I don't know how many there were. I think that there were at least two, maybe more.
The storyline was about a fellow that wore a black "suit", I don't remember it being a "Karate" outfit, I remember it being a plain black suit, rather light weight and he also wore a white shirt. There may have been a black narrow neck tie. He had black hair and was always very quiet. He smoked cigarettes.
I "think" that he may have had a lung condition, don't know what it was, but, just before a fight began someone would whisper, "when he coughes, somebody dies".. and if he didn't cough before the fight he just knocked the opponent around.
It really was a very, very intriguing couple of films, and had good music, rather Morriconish, as I remember, but not an obvious rip off...
I was wondering if anyone could help me with the title(s).
Again, this is a nice site, and the people certainly have good conversations.
Thanks for activating my membership, I don't have much to "contibute" but will be here reading stuff a lot.
