    I just feel this scene is complete without Toad. He would have had them all down within moments but that's just my opinion. I like how crafty the Scorpion turned out to be, and what a simpleton Centipede really is. Snake redeemed himself by delivering the fatal blow. Style-wise, I prefer the Scorpion's attacks because one of his kicks is enough to paralyze and even kill. Reminds me of Bruce Lee's philosophy about fearing the man who practices a thousand kicks. Overall, this film is a masterpiece, and ahead of its time.

    @joeyboogenz Рік тому +10

    Lo Mang, who played “The Toad” in Five Deadly Venoms, was nicknamed “The Shaolin Hercules” because of his muscular physique. Because of his build, Lo was usually cast as incredibly strong characters who used their fists more than they did swords or spears. Lo also had a tendency to play hotheaded and arrogant martial artists. Similar to Sun Chien, Lo played a combination of heroes and villains, but was a protagonist in most of his appearances. Both he and Chien weren’t in as many Venom movies as the other three actors, but did have starring roles in more than ten Venom Mob films. Out of all the Venom Mob members, Lo had the longest and most prolific career after the group’s disbandment. Since leaving Shaw Brothers, Lo has done a great deal of work in both movies and TV in Hong Kong. In what his perhaps his biggest role is recent years is that of monkey style expert Master Law in the last three Ip Man movies with Donnie Yen.

      Pretty sure fight scenes in live action movies aren't done with CGI, unless you're talking about superhero movies then I can agree, but regular action flicks... They do choreography just like how they did back in the day, and with the John Wick films it seems like there's a desire to go back to the wide screen long shot style of filming with as little cuts and shaky cam as possible just like how they did in these kung fu films back in the day

      WHAT??? They weren't paid very much? Really? Shaw Brothers should have known that they had really really skilled individuals to make their film. And... the mere PRACTICING they had to go through! As you said. I am not familiar with the Shaw Brothers film studios... but... certainly DO know that they were a MAJOR STUDIO. How...in this world could they get away with NOT paying these martial artists what they certainly deserved??? Maybe you could tell me. Thank you for your comment

    Phillip Kwok (known as Kuo Chui to audiences in the East) was “The Lizard” in the Five Deadly Venoms. The Taiwanese actor was a well-trained martial artist and acrobat with a wide range of skills. In his movies, he was shown to be adept at hand-to-hand combat and acrobatic stunts like back and front flips. He fought with a variety of weapons, but used a staff more than most. Its worth noting that Kwok took center stage in most of the Venom movies. Many of the Venom actors would alternate between hero and villain roles, but Kwok would always play one of the good guys. While some of the Venoms wouldn’t make it to the end of the movie, Kwok’s character would generally be one of the last heroes standing. After the Hong Kong industry shifted away from kung fu movies, Kwok continued acting for quite some time and played Mad Dog in John Woo’s Hard Boiled, a movie where Kwok handled the martial arts choreography.

      Seems like a you’re Phillip Kwok fan, Kuo Chui has played a villian he’s the main villian in the Chinatown kid and though he is mostly last sole survivor he has died few times for example his death scene in invincible Shaolin is quite heroic and in life gamble he was outmatched and killed by Lee yi min another sb veteran and a legend of kung fu movies

    “The Scorpion” in the Five Deadly Venoms was brought to life by Sun Chien, a Taekwondo master. The martial arts star is best known for his signature high kicks, which were a key element in his fighting style. His impressive kicking techniques helped the Venom Mob deliver some of their most exhilarating action sequences. As for how he would factor into the movies’ stories, Sun was a bit of a wild card. More often than not, he played heroes, but he also had his fair share of villainous roles, including his character in Five Deadly Venoms. There were also movies where his supposedly good-natured character would turn out to be a wicked traitor, which was the situation in both The Kid With the Golden Arm and The Rebel Intruders. Unfortunately, Sun’s characters - including the heroic ones - usually met with tragic ends and sometimes didn’t make it to the final fight.

      A bit, it's hard to filter out but very interesting to look into. A lot of actors of this era of action cinema were inducted into Peking Opera schooling as kids, or a similar performative arts school, where they learned martial arts, dance, choreography and similar disciplines. Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao are probably the most famous examples. These guys do know martial arts, and it's smattered throughout the films, but most is what is referred to as a sort of "Chinese opera martial arts", which is mostly choreographed to just look good.

    I never understood why this was never made into Anime. Anime artistry, an epic artist who is excellent in that craft combined with these five venoms and a great storyline would go viral instantly. You can even introduce new venoms to become allies or foes against them such as Killer Bee, Tarantula and Komodo Dragon plus others for the list goes on and on such as a Blue Ringed Octopus. Anime is the direct path towards reintroducing 5 Deadly Venom fans and making new fans with a global art form that will send shockwaves.
