Directed by internationally acclaimed fight choreographer and master of action Yuen Woo-Ping (Kill Bill; The Matrix; Iron Monkey), Dreadnaught is a powerful action-packed horror-comedy boasting a rare teaming up of popular kung fu star Yuen Biao (Once Upon A Time In China) and Chinese Opera star Kwan Tak-Hing. One of the all time great old school kung fu movies, Dreadnaught now comes to DVD fully restored and digitally remastered courtesy of Hong Kong Legends.
Dreadnaught sees Kwan Tak-Hing reprising the role he made famous in almost 100 films during his career, that of the revered Chinese folk hero and celebrated kung fu expert, Wong Fei-Hung, a man immortalized on film thanks to films such as Drunken Master and Once Upon A Time In China (in which he was portrayed by Jackie Chan and Jet Li respectively).
Dreadnaught (cert. 15) will be released on DVD (£16.99) by Hong Kong Legends on 7th August 2006. Special Features include: "Who Is Wong Fei-Hung?"; UK promotional trailer; original theatrical trailer; interview with Lily Li; optional Cantonese 5.1, English 5.1 and Cantonese mono; optional English and Dutch subtitles; further attractions; scene selection.
