The career of Yuen Biao is a curious one. One of the more recognizable names of the golden era of Hong Kong cinema, yet on the surface never reaching the heights of his counterparts Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung. His most immediately recognisable roles are those where featured alongside the other two. Yet he did carve out a solid solo career and during the late 80’s found a niche in fantasy movies. In 1988 he appeared in two adaptations of the Japanese manga “Peacock King”. The initial one reviewed here and its sequel “Saga of the Phoenix”.

Ashura (Gloria Yip), the daughter of the Hell King is awoken from her slumber by one of his minions Raga (Pauline Wong) as she holds the key to his imprisonment. Peacock (Yuen Biao) is sent to Toyko by his master (Eddie Ko) to try and prevent the opening of the Hell gate there.

Yuen Biao is one of the greatest screen performers of all time. He exploded onto our screens when Sammo Hung cast him in the amazing movie Knockabout and he has never looked back since.

This list will be familiar with most fans around the world, but this list is also for people who are new to this genre and want to check out some great flicks. I have added a few movies, which are a bit low budget but does contain some nice action.

I know there are still many Yuen Biao movies i could have named in this list, some i shall give a mention to at the bottom of the feature. So i hope you like the movies i have listed, if your new to Yuen Biao please check out some of these great flicks.
