We're back for more! Today we've got an awesome couple of films for you!

The East Meets the West Ep. 12 – The Flag of Iron (1980) & My Name Is Nobody (1973)

Épisode 12

vendredi 11 juin 2021 • Durée 02:36:21

We continue to dive further into the Venom Mob films of the Shaw Brothers, and Terence Hill's Spaghetti Western legacy. The Venoms films are hitting their stride like a well oiled machine, and Terence Hill gives a similar performance to that of the character Trinity, but is so good at it that it leaves you wanting more! Patsy the Angry nerd and I had a lot of fun covering today's films.

This episode we discuss The Flag of Iron (1980) - When the virtuous Iron Flag Clan are ambushed by the Eagle Clan, the Flags' leader is assassinated by a paid killer known as the Spearman, the eldest brother Chao Feng becomes the head of the Flags. However, the Eagles' leader is also killed in the melee and the remainder of the Eagle clan go to the police about the death of their leader – forcing the police to at least appear to take action. To save the Flag clan, brother Lo takes the fall and agrees to go into exile. Upon learning that the Flags have taken over the Eagles and are perhaps more corrupt than the Eagles ever were, Lo vows to return home along with some help, and fix things once and for all.

And we discussed the Spaghetti Western, My Name is Nobody (1973), starring the aforementioned Terence Hill and instead of Bud Spencer, this time he's teamed with the legendary Hollywood icon, Henry Fonda! Fonda plays an aging gunslinger who is just looking to retire until he meets Hill who is just referred to as “Nobody” and worships the oldster. Nobody explains that Beauregard (Fonda) can't just fade away into obscurity, but needs to go out in style! Surprisingly, this was an idea by Sergio Leone, (who also produced it) and is a comedy. We go into great depth on this film, peeling away the layers of another picture that attempts to “deconstruct” the Spaghetti Western genre...this time by the guy who practically invented it!

My Name is Nobody is currently streaming on Amazon Prime (as of 6/10/21).

The East Meets the West Ep. 11 – 2 Champions of Shaolin (1980) & Trinity is Still My Name (1971)

Épisode 11

samedi 15 mai 2021 • Durée 01:17:46

On today's episode, Patsy the Angry Nerd and I discuss a couple of really good ones: 2 Champions of Shaolin from the Shaw Brothers, and the Spaghetti Western, Trinity is Still My Name with Terence Hill and Bud Spencer.

In Champions, Two young warriors from the Ming loyalist Shaolin Clan are engaged in a deadly secret mission that could bring down the Qing empire. The Venoms are back except for Philip Kwok who sat this one out, but helped with the fight choreography.

In Trinity, Bambino tries to teach his brother Trinity how to become an outlaw, but the two wind up saving a pioneer family and breaking up an arms ring instead. This movie is hilarious and a must see!

We also get into some discussion about the Drive-In Super Monster Rama, as well as some correspondence, so check it out!

Trinity is Still My Name is available on Amazon Prime. The DVD of 2 Champions of Shaolin can be found here:

The East Meets the West Ep. 10 - Shaolin Hellgate (1980) and They Call Me Trinity (1970)

Épisode 10

mercredi 14 avril 2021 • Durée 01:38:33

The parallels between Shaw Brothers films and Spaghetti Westerns continues to amaze us! Through no conscious intent, both films we cover on today's episode delve into religion as a major theme throughout.

In the Shaw Brothers film, Shaolin Hellgate (aka Heaven and Hell - 1980) guest starring The Venoms, we find a psychedelic mashup of a bunch of things, but to simplify it, it's like West Side Story meets Dante's Inferno! It's a crazy trip through Heaven, Earth, and Hell and Patsy and I had fun scratching our heads trying to figure it out! Lee Yi Min stars as one of Heaven's guards exiled to Earth for helping a couple elope, and ends up in Hell where he must gather a team of honest wrongdoers (as opposed to evildoers) so they can fight their way out of Hell.

On the Spaghetti Western side, since we've covered Terence Hill and Bud Spencer's first trilogy, we not dive into their next two films, starting with They Call me Trinity (1970). Hill and Spencer are excellent in what is undoubtedly one of the best Spaghetti Westerns we've covered so far! Terence Hill stars as a lazy, unorthodox gunfighter and Bud Spencer plays his portly, horse-thieving brother. Together, they must defend a Mormon settlement from a land-grabbing Major, a Mexican bandit, and their henchmen! A fun, if offbeat, double feature!

As of this posting, They Call Me Trinity is on Amazon Prime. Shaolin Hellgate (aka Heaven and Hell) is available at:

The East Meets the West Ep. 9 – Shaolin Daredevils and Boot Hill

Épisode 9

mardi 30 mars 2021 • Durée 01:25:43

On today's episode, Patsy the Angry Nerd and I discuss the Shaw Brothers film, Shaolin Daredevils (aka The Daredevils) from 1979 another Chang Cheh directed film which once again unites all of the Venom Mob, and the Spaghetti Western, Boot Hill (1969) – the third in the trilogy directed by Guiseppe Colizzi and Starring Terence Hill and Bud Spencer who reprise their roles as Cat and Hutch.

Through no purposeful planning, we are finding more and more similarities between Spaghetti Westerns and Shaw Brothers films! Both of today's movies involve acrobatics of some kind – performance by the Venom Mob as they attempt to get revenge for one of their fallen brothers, and through the circus performers that are at the heart of Boot Hill.

So if you can find these films and watch them before listening to this episode, we heartily recommend it.

As of this posting, Boot Hill is on Amazon Prime. But do not be fooled by Prime's listing of Shaolin Daredevils under the simple title, Daredevils. The only authentic version of the film in question was found available at:

The East Meets the West Ep. 8 - Magnificent Ruffians and Ace High

Épisode 8

mardi 23 février 2021 • Durée 02:02:29

On today's episode, Patsy the Angry Nerd and I cover the Shaw Brothers film, The Magnificent Ruffians from 1979, once again uniting all of the Venom Mob; and Ace High from 1968, the sequel to God Forgives...I don't, starring Terence Hill and Bud Spencer who reprise their roles as Cat and Hutch.

In Magnificent Ruffians, a cruel Kung-Fu Master, living in the early 20th century, when Kung-Fu warriors became scarce due to modern weaponry, lures 4 Kung Fu masters to his house so that he can trick them into killing his rival, then ultimately killing them! A fast paced, fun movie!

In Ace High, Cat and Hutch return and tangle with the wily Eli Wallach (The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly), who has stolen their money that they acquired in the first film, and is giving it away while on his own path of vengeance upon the men who framed him for murder 15 years prior.

Patsy and I had some great belly laughs as we discussed these films, and we hope you find this episode entertaining and informative!

The East Meets the West Ep. 7 – Shaolin Rescuers and God Forgives...I Don't!

Épisode 7

mercredi 3 février 2021 • Durée 02:25:27

As we delve further into Shaw Brothers films and Spaghetti Western movies, Patsy the Angry Nerd and I realize that we are still just barely scratching the surface. Our films this episode are Shaolin Rescuers (aka Avenging Warriors of Shaolin) from 1979, and the Spaghetti Western, God Forgives...I Don't! from 1967.

God Forgives...I Don't! is the first teaming of Terence Hill and Bud Spencer; a co-starring relationship that the two would have for several years, as their on-screen chemistry is so amazing! After a train is robbed of its payroll, a card-shark and insurance investigator team up to retrieve the money from the evil bandits who keep it hidden at a secret location near the Mexican border. We are definitely looking forward to discussing more films that this silver screen team appears in!

Shaolin Rescuers concerns two friends who long to leave their humdrum lives and become heroes. They get embroiled in a battle with a WuTan warlord and his squad of villains, while being helped by a Kung Fu student, and a rebel. Of the Venom Mob films we've covered so far, this is perhaps the most action-packed movie we've seen! Amazing stunts, acrobatics and martial arts fights make this one definitely worth seeking out!

The East Meets The West Ep. 6 – Life Gamble and Day of Anger

Épisode 6

mercredi 20 janvier 2021 • Durée 02:39:13

Howdy!

Continuing our journey into Shaw Brothers films and Spaghetti Westerns, Patsy the Angry Nerd and I discuss the 4th Venom Mob film, Life Gamble from 1978, and the amazing team up of the legendary Lee Van Cleef with Spaghetti Western icon Giuliano Gemma in Day of Anger from 1967.

Life Gamble is a complicated Kung-Fu film about a stolen jade artifact and all the people vying for it, including a ruthless gambler, thieves, con artists, an iron-fisted villain and a badass Kung-Fu warrior turned peaceful blacksmith. This film is very different in tone and complexity than the other Shaw films we've covered so far, so check it out!

Day of Anger is the teaming of two of Spaghetti Westerns' greatest actors. Lee Van Cleef is an aging gunslinger who takes Giuliano Gemma under his wing and transforms him from a down and out peon to a master gunslinger himself who takes control of his destiny! The acting and cinematography in this one make it a film not to be missed!

The East Meets The West Ep. 5 - Masked Avengers and The Return of Ringo

Épisode 5

lundi 21 décembre 2020 • Durée 02:42:04

Wènhòu péngyǒu!

(Greetings friends!)

We've got a fun episode for you, and it's the last episode of 2020! Re-Gor and Patsy the Angry Nerd take the year out with a bang as they cover the Shaw Brothers film, Masked Avengers from 1981 and the spaghetti western, The Return of Ringo from 1965!

In the first feature, a gang of masked evildoers terrorize the countryside and it's up to a band of heroes to take them down! The second is the sequel to “A Pistol for Ringo” and is a very different and much darker tale than the first one!

As we examine the Masked Avengers, we delve a little deeper into Phillip Kwok's career, and discuss what are referred to as the 2nd Tier Venoms – they were usually actors who played a supporting Villain with Lu Feng, and appeared in many of the Venom Mob movies.

The 2nd Tier Venoms who appear in Masked Avengers are as follows:

Chu Ko – who played Liang Yung here.

Chin Siu-Ho – who played Chang Chung (as Hsiao Hau Chien) here.

Wang Li – who played Fong Su Kwong here.

We will discuss more 2nd Tier Venoms as they show up in future films.
