Title: The Super Inframan 中國超人 Year: 1975 Director: Hua Shan 華山 Casts: Danny Lee 李修賢, Wang Hsieh 王俠 Imagine pint-sized Godzillas fighting the DC Comic superhero “Ironman,“ have Shaw Brothers improve on this outrageous mix by adding kung-fu choreography, and then you have Super Inframan, one of the most far-out, fantastical films ever made. Starring the up and coming Danny Lee (who achieved international superstardom in John Woo’s The Killer), the film pits Lee as the thunderbolt-fisted Inframan battling maniacal monsters from the Earth’s center lead by the evil Demon Princess (Terry Liu). Adding to the psychosis is the fast paced fights choreographed by the acclaimed action director Tang Chia, beautiful camera work by He Lan-shan (Bruce Lee’s cinematographer in The Way Of The Dragon), and fights that feature an actor who later starred in kung-fu flicks under the moniker of Bruce Lee.
