31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 29: FACE OF FU MANCHU 1965 (WARNER ARCHIVE)

This is the first of five Fu Manchu films starring Christopher Lee as the super villian.

In this film Fu wants the Black Hills Poppy formula which will kill millions of people, and he actually uses it on a small town and kills 3000 people!!

Lee plays Manchu perfectly and this movie really shows you what an evil pulp character Sax Rhomer had in mind. Tsai Chin is Fu's lovely and sadistic daughter Lin Tang and Nigel Green is Fu's enemy, Nayland Smith.

The action is all pulp and fun as hell. The supporting cast includes Howard marion Crawford as Dr. Petrie sexy Karin Dor, Walter Rilla and Francesca Tu as Lotus. Highly recommended action for Halloween.
