Fight scene from "Killing of the Villains" (1961)

Fight scene from "Killing of the Villains," a 1961 film directed by Wu Pang, creator of the original Wong Fei-hung series, starring Kwan Tak-hing, Shek Kin, Yu So-chow (dressed as a man here), and Lam Kau, a 1950s kung fu actor who also played Jackie Chan's father in "Drunken Master."

I stumbled across this genuine martial arts fighting scene, when I tried to Google more informations of Yu Soo Chau. Wow, Yu Soo Chau dressed up like a man with her handsome face to match. This scene she teamed up with Kwan Tek Hing! Which was very unusual because Yam Yin was one of the main actress with Wong Fei Hong. In 50s and 60s. Kwan Tek Hing rated no.1 who had real martial art , in the male category. Follow by Sek Kin and Lum Kow. Female side was only two, no 1 was Yu Soo Chau and no. 2 was Yam Yin During black and white films era These movie stars never used stunt people or any camera tricks to help them. What you seen that what you get! . Thank you for the up loading. .

There's nothing on the HKMDb. I know Lau Jaam/Lau Cham (father of Lau Kar Leung and Lau Kar WIng) worked on the Wong Fei Hung series, but his last credit was in 1961. I don't know whether he retired or died or whatever though, as there's surprisingly little info about him, at least in English language articles.
And yeah, the choreography's a tad dated. I guess it's that transitional spell between the Chinese Opera stuff and what Lau Kar Leung and Sammo did in the 70s and 80s.

It's a shame there's not more in English. This is the student of the senior student of Wong Fei-hung mythologizing his grandmaster and teacher in one of the early, influential series. Gordon Liu's Hung Gar comes from the Lau! And most people don't realize Jet's famous portrayal of Wong uses Northern Shaolin, not southern boxing!

Great clip! Who did the choreography?

[@itinerantpoet1341]

They probably were just winging in back in those days. Spend a couple of minutes working it out and shoot, b/c everyone is a pro.

@@myyoutubepage199 hey guy they have Wai Fe Hung dying at 78 years old if did that Chinese would never celebrate his death you have to make to 80 years old for Chinese to celebrate your death that is a custom ,,
That why Chinese hide everything from people who think they know everything and the fake people who claim to know a lot the reality don't know anything and think they do . Like the Chinese say if they don't have the full internal power they really don't know

Wow. You really see the contributions made by choreographers like the Seven Little Fortunes, Lau Kar-leung, Tang Chia, Bruce Lee, and so on. None of these kicks and punches look real.
