I need to find a (lesser known) Kung-Fu movie that has a scene with a fighting fan. I already found one, “Bruce Lee: Invincible”, but I need another one.
I don’t want to use Jackie Chan’s Young Master or Drunken Master II or Dreadnaught, I need something a little more obscure?
Any thoughts?

Awesome. Thank you, I’ll definitely look for that.

I think there was a little bit of fan fighting done by Fu Sheng in Heroes Two, and probably again in Shaolin Avengers. Pardon me, it’s been a long time since I saw those.
I also think Lam Ching-Ying used a fan against Yuen Biao in Magnificent Butcher, but that’s a very commonly found film.
THat Lam Ching Ying Yuen Biao fight is easily one of the best fights I have ever seen. Also check out Shaolin Kingboxer and Fan Merit. Meng Fei is very good with a fan. and Hwang Jang Lee uses a fan in Snuff Bottle Connection.
lam chi ying fight
he’s looking for lesser known fights. that fights pretty well known.hey u mind telling us why?
Why is it well known?
Because it is a popular movie.
Greetings,
Fan fight scenes can be found in:
Kung fu Genius
The Sentimental Swordsman
Return of the Sentimental Swordsman

I seem to remember Lau Kar-Leung using a fan early on in Mad Monkey Kung Fu. But that’s not a very obscure movie, either.
Hey, I said the movie Fan Merit but I meant Young Hero of Shaolin. I think fan Merit is another title for it. Like I said, Meng Fei is great with a fan.
Be sure to check out Shaolin Kingboxer and Young Hero of Shaolin.
hey yutyeesaam why were you looking for lesser known fan fights?

Hey Doug,
I’m doing a demonstration/presentation of the fighting fan for another Kung-Fu school (they don’t do any fan stuff), and I wanted to use movie clips of fan fight scenes that you can’t easily come by, just to kind of turn on the intrigue of older lesser known Kung-Fu flix for the relatively new Kung-Fu student.
Your recommendation of the Kid with Golden Arms is a great one! Thanks for that - I’m totally going to use it!
I was going to try to import the fan fight scene clips into a power point, but I realized I don’t have the tech savvy for that, so it looks like I’m going to have to bring a DVD player. Do you by chance know how to extract clips from a movie? If not, no biggie, bringing a DVD player is not a problem.

If I remember correctly, Adam Cheng had some nifty fan work in the Lau Kar Leung film Shaolin and Wutang also starring Gordon Liu.
Kid with the Golden Arm doesn’t even come close to Meng Fei using a fan.
Not what you are looking for, but check out one of Bolo Yeung’s best fights. Umbrella vs flute- http://youtube.com/watch?v=VfkrxyJtAns
