About The Castle of Fu Manchu
The evil mastermind Fu Manchu plots his latest scheme to basically freeze over the Earth's oceans with his diabolical new device. Opposing him is his arch-nemesis, Interpol's very British Nayland Smith.
Directed by Jesús Franco, The Castle of Fu Manchu leans on a strong ensemble — Christopher Lee, Richard Greene, Howard Marion-Crawford — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1969.
