movie released in 1976

Stars Van Williams as the Green Hornet & Bruce Lee as Kato.

Features episodes Trouble for Prince Charming, Secret of the Sally Bell, The Ray Is for Killing, Bad Bet on a 459-Silent.

These are some of my favorite Hornet epics! Features plenty of action,with the Green Hornet up against gangsters, crooked cops,double crossing eliteist officials from Kahara, Conman/Thief who uses a laser gun.

Black Beauty is utilized in these episodes as well!

Great 1960's action!

Episodes are in watchable condition!

FURY OF THE DRAGON is the second film compilation of the short lived but memorable 1960's TV series THE GREEN HORNET starring Van Williams as the Green Hornet and Bruce Lee as Kato. The first film compilation released in 1974,THE GREEN HORNET was a much better edited and carefully constructed film compilation of the TV series released by 20th Century Fox who chose rather carefully the best episodes of the series to make a slightly cohesive 90 minute feature film. Unfortunately,that is not the case for this second film compilation which was released by an independent film company and not by Fox and it definitely shows in it's shoddiness in editing the various episodes of the show just to showcase Lee's fighting scenes and not to try to establish some kind of story cohesiveness in the film itself. Some 15 episodes of the show are used in this compilation,even footage from the four episodes that was used for the first film compilation of The Green Hornet that was released in theaters two years earlier. As a result,the film makes little sense at all compared with the first film compilation of the Hornet TV series and for that reason,FURY OF THE DRAGON is much more exploitive of Bruce Lee in the way it was shoddily made and rushed in it's production compared with the more watchable first film compilation,THE GREEN HORNET.

This time they got it right! In 1976 they edited together more footage from the short lived 1960s Green Hornet series and turned out something that is BETTER and more action-packed than the television series!

The shining moment is the episode The Ray Is For Killing (the more cartoon-ish episode about the killer laser beam). This tale highlights the three things I like about The Green Hornet series: the fights, The Black Beauty and the pumping Billy May music!

Granted, the editing of "Fury" is a bit all over the place, but I can forgive that. All in all, this is just a cool action movie from my favourite studio, 20th Century Fox!
