The box claimed "Bruce Lee ...in the original martial arts classic!"

Unfortunately, this film neither features real martial arts, nor is it a classic. It hardly even features Bruce Lee, except for some old footage that has been re-dubbed to make it look like Lee actually agreed to this film being made. I hope somebody got sued for this one.

This could have been a good documentary about the "1979 Karate Championship" but most of the footage from the karate matches is obviously staged, and has little to do with Chinese martial arts. Some interesting "facts" were revealed by this film however. For instance, prior to watching "Fist of Fear", I had no idea that Lee's great grandfather was the greatest Chinese samurai warrior.

There are a few funny moments in the film (the Bill Louie Kato scene, or when Fred Williamson is introduced for example) but if you have any respect for Bruce Lee or film-making in general, I would highly recommend avoiding this film.

Anecdotes
Rereleased in the late 1980s as part of Sybil Danning's Adventure Videos series. Her agent, got the idea for licensing the series after seeing buxom horror hostess Elvira do the same with low budget horror films. Like Elvira, Danning didn't appear in the actual movies. She just "presented" them. She filmed a three minute introduction and ending that was edited into the videotape, and she posed in sexy outfits for the package covers. The movies were C-grade action movies with no name actors and very little production quality usually filmed somewhere in Italy or the Phillipines. Soon after the first one was released, video stores started getting complaints from angry fans who rented them thinking she was in the films. They'd return them and demand their money back.
