    • Trivia
      Brandon Lee plays the illegitimate son of David Carradine's character. Brandon's real-life father, Bruce Lee, auditioned for the lead role in the original TV series, "Kung Fu" (1972), but Carradine got the role instead. Adding to the Bruce Lee connection, Enter The Dragon composer Lalo Schifrin composed the score for this film.

    Less than I remembered

    The 80's and 90's saw a lot of first rate tv movies but just off a rewatch made me feel the film had a cheap 70's feel to it. Carradine is older but film can be seen as a sequel to the 72 pilot ( just saw for the first time ) and series or as a remake of the first film. Brandon Lee is not much of a presence but I liked the ending.
