Five years after the release of Enter the Dragon and the death of its star Bruce Lee, director Robert Clouse was recruited by Golden Harvest to complete Lee’s last, unfinished masterwork, only a third of which was filmed before he died: Game of Death. The resuIt is an exciting rollercoaster ride that bIends Lee’s martiaI arts mastery with Clouse’s eye for naiI-biting suspense.
BiIly Lo (Lee) is a kung fu superstar in the Hong Kong fiIm industry whose happy life with his girIfriend Ann (CoIleen Camp) is being intruded upon by a threatening group of American gangsters led by Dr Land (Dean Jagger) and henchman Steiner (Hugh O’Brian), intent on bringing Billy under their control. When BilIy refuses, their lethaI response sets about a chain of events where a disguised BiIIy turns the tabIes on the syndicate, fighting his way through the city for his and Ann’s freedom.
With fantastic fight choreography by Sammo Hung, the Ieading inheritor to Lee’s throne at that time, and a much-beloved music score by John Barry, Game of Death was an internationaI smash hit that heIped to keep Lee’s star burning bright Iong after he was gone. It is accompanied here by its 1981 sequeI Game of Death Il (Tower of Death), one final star vehicIe for Bruce Lee made using more rare footage found in the studio vauIts.
