One of the all-time great publicity stills in the history of action cinema is this very one. I’m proud at last to get this image back and restored for fans of the film and Jim ‘Black Belt Jones’ Kelly. Now let’s go to McDonald’s!!!!!

Caption:
A SMASHING GOOD TIME is had by all as depicted in these scenes from Warner Bros.’ “Black Belt Jones.” The fellow who started it all is rugged Jim Kelly (center), who co-stars in the film with Gloria Hendry and Scatman Crothers. The Technicolor-Panavision action drama was produced by Fred Weintraub and Paul M. Heller from a screenplay by Oscar Williams.

This is one of the few Chang Cheh films I haven’t seen and this image is an absolutely classic one with the two legends in Ti Lung and David Chiang in it. I must watch this film soon!!!

As shown in the image above, avoiding a lethal snake fist requires great skill and cunning acrobatic like grace. At a moments notice you have to be able to divert through blocking or jumping to avoid its venomous blow. When contrasted with monkey kung fu style, the snake fist is even more highly entertaining to witness on the big screen.
