‘Wu Tang vs. The Golden Phoenix’ (RZA’s Kung Fu Movie) New Movie Trailer

Tweet

So apparently The RZA has been making an old school style kung fu movie with the help of some old school kung fu movie people and Eli Roth. Apparently this movie is 10 years in the making, and a new trailer for it was just released (shown above). The story comes from Quiet Earth, as does the following description:

The hip hop icon says he made Golden Phoenix to prove to himself and Hollywood that he could be taken seriously as a director. He had some help from Eli Roth, who is billed as an executive producer for the film. The film also features several kung fu legends like Robert Tai, fight choreographer from the 1978 classic The Five Deadly Venoms. Golden Phoenix was made in the style of 1970′s “Kung Fu Theater” – grainy shots, crazy sound effects and lots of dubbing. RZA is well known for his kung fu obsession; just listen to any Wu-Tang album. Now he’s taken that vast knowledge of the genre to create “a world where everyone fights…and they’re all fighting for one thing – the Wu Tang weapon.”

The original trailer for this craziness is below.
