September 19: Grindhouse Film Festival presents INVINCIBLE POLE FIGHTER

September 19th at 7:30 at the Hollywood Theatre, The Grindhouse Film Festival presents an extremely rare 35mm print of the kung fu masterpiece INVINCIBLE POLE FIGHTER.  Around here, we consider this the best kung fu film of all time, and this movie has never been released on dvd in the US.

INVINCIBLE POLE FIGHTER (1984) A family of fighters is ambushed by invaders in a fierce battle that leaves the family's father and four of six brothers dead.  One of the remaining brothers (the Master Killer himself, Gordon Liu) swears revenge, and forces his way into the Shaolin Temple to master his pole fighting skills.  When his younger sister is kidnapped by the invaders, it's payback time.  After numerous jaw-dropping fight scenes, there is a massive climactic battle that ranks among the greatest action scenes in movie history.  This film is directed by martial arts master Lau Kar Leung (36th CHAMBER OF SHAOLIN), stars Gordon Liu (36th CHAMBER, KILL BILL) and features the last on-screen role of the great Fu Sheng.  This is an all-out kung fu masterpiece.
