About Wong Fei Hung's Battle with the Gorilla
Wong Fei-hung and his disciples hear that a small village is being terrorised by a ferocious gorilla. It turns out that the beast is actually a small-time crook in a gorilla suit under the orders of a precious metal smuggler who wants to intimidate the villagers. The crook takes advantage of his disguise to abduct a beautiful girl and escape to the mountains, but has a surprise in store for him. Just how many gorillas are loose in them there hills?
Directed by Hu Peng, Wong Fei Hung's Battle with the Gorilla leans on a strong ensemble — Kwan Tak-Hing, Fei Ying, Hsing-Fan Lin — 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 action titles of 1960.
