Eastern Condors (1987) It’s the Kung Fu Dirty Dozen! A motley group of Chinese prisoners (all kung fu experts) are given a long-shot chance for freedom. They are sent on a deadly mission deep into Vietnam to destroy a weapons arsenal left behind by the US. The group, including martial arts superstars Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao and Master Yuen Woo Ping, hook up with a trio of female freedom fighters. The ragtag group has to use their kung fu skills in the jungle to fight dozens of enemies, endure double crosses, and invade a secret lair. None of that compares though to the blistering jaw-dropping finale, featuring some of the most wince-inducing stunt work ever put on film. Directed by Sammo Hung (The Victim).
