After the spectacular success of "Enter The Dragon" in 1973, many Western producers realized the potential of incorporating Chinese kung fu with their adventure films. Producer Stenio Fiorentini of Italy enlisted the cooperation of Hong Kong largest film studio, the Shaw Brothers, and secured the services of their contract actor Yueh Hua to join a trio of actors that formed the Supermen. Set back in ancient times when Greek culture ruled the world, the story deals with the conflict between a race of warrior women, the villagers whom they hold in bondage, and the three men who dedicate themselves to setting them free. A Caucasian named Aro (Nick Jordan), Tago, a giant son of Africa (Marc Hannibal), and the Oriental, Chang (Yueh Hua) take on an entire army of Amazons, using their amazing agility, knowledge of martial arts, and their ability to invent strange machines of war, the heroes proving themselves to be a match for the warrior women. Filmed entirely in Italy, "Amazons And Supermen" enjoyed great box office success the world over. The Shaw Brothers were so confident in its result that they set forth with another co-production with Hammer Studio of England called "Legend Of The 7 Golden Vampires" in the same year. (Brentwood) |
