(Jeremy Summers, 1967, 92 mins) Release date: 30 May 2022 Standard Edition Blu-ray A Shaw Brothers co-production directed by Jeremy Summers (Five Golden Dragons) and co-starring Horst Frank (The Etruscan Kills Again) and Maria Rohm (Marquis de Sade: Justine), The Vengeance of Fu Manchu is the third in a cycle of five films reviving Sax Rohmer’s Chinese crime lord, produced and written by Harry Alan Towers (Bullet to Beijing). The Sino-super villain Fu Manchu (Christopher Lee, The Gorgon) has retreated to his mountain lair to plan the destruction of his arch-nemesis Nayland Smith (Douglas Wilmer, Octopussy).
