Two Graves To Kung Fu

About This Movie

So, 'Two Graves To Kung Fu' from 1974 is a pretty interesting watch if you're into that blend of gritty action and martial arts with a revenge narrative. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it kind of adds to that raw, underground feel of the era. The practical effects are notable, especially considering the budget, and the fight choreography has its own charm. The performances are not exactly Oscar-worthy, but there's a sincerity to the lead's quest for vengeance that makes it engaging. Overall, it resonates with that classic vibe of the 70s martial arts films, where the personal stakes are high and the action doesn't pull punches.

This film has been somewhat elusive in the collector’s market, with various releases but not too many uncut versions floating around. The VHS tapes and early DVD releases have created some buzz, though the scarcity of decent prints means decent copies are sought after. Its cult status is gradually growing among genre enthusiasts, which may drive interest further, especially as interest in 70s martial arts cinema continues to revive.
