Krahsh's Kung Fu Friday Spectaculaaaahhhrr!
Krahsh | 10:52 AM on 07.31.2009 1 comments


It's Friiiiidaaaay!
In most germanic languages Friday is named after the goddess Freyja who is not only accredited as being the goddess of love and nookie but is also associated with war, battle and death. So what better way to celebrate Friday than partaking in hedonistic acts like drinking, fighting and fucdkgemaking?!

For those less adventurous you can always crack a open a bottle, play some games and watch a movie that at least glorifying such wonderful pastimes. That's where this blog comes in, I'm hoping to help point you in the right direction when it comes to living vicariously through those badasses on the screen.
To me, in the world of Kun-Fu cinema there's nothing worse than being blue balled by a movie's horrible plot or dragging pace.


For my inaugural KKFF post I figured we'd stick with tradition by heal kicking up a review of a classic that everybody SHOULD have seen already.. :P


If you don't instantly recognize this cover art then you, my friend, are doing yourself an injustice. You are robbing yourself of a myriad of enjoyent!
First released on October 5 1978 Drunken Master, as it was titled in the states, is a great film demonstrating why Jackie Chan really is the clown prince of kung fu. Directed by Woo-ping Yuen and featuring other veterans of the Peking Opera house like Siu Tien Yuen The film follows the misadventures of a young Wong Fei Hung (more to come on this folk hero) and the trouble his mischiefs land him in.

Ultimately Jackie ends up being sent to train with his "uncle" as punishment for his misbehavior and like any other good kung fu movie trouble seems to follow our protagonists wherever they go ensuring that there is rarely more than 5 minutes between fight sequences.


I could go on and on about how great this film is but it's better that you just check it out yourself because that trailer doesn't even begin to do it justice. For less than 10 bucks it's well worth the purchase.

Suggested dinner and/or snacks to accompany the film would include;
pepper steak stir fry from your closest round-eye friendly americanized chinese take out shack, some fried bread and/or spring rolls dipped in kikoman's sweet and sour sauce.
Suggested beverages would be Dr.Pepper or cola of your choice and enough malt liqueur to drown a horse.
Suggested after movie game;

Believe it or not this is actually a pretty fun game when played with friends, especially when you make the loser drink..

Until next time, Cheers! and Gom bui!!

They just don't make Kung Fu like they used to. This is definitely the place to start.
