Fantasy Mission Force (1982)
#1
Jackie Chan has top billing, but I thought he was a tertiary character until much later in the movie. This is a take off on the Dirty Dozen. The plot goes something like this: tha japanese have captured the four top generals of the world. One man is tasked with recruiting the top criminal talent to rescue them. There's kilt man, kaiser helmet man, and Elvis man among the cast. On their travels they are captured by the Cirque du Soleil Amazons. The are in an Abbot and Costello haunted castle. There's also a Nazi demolition derby. I watched this online. I'll post the link. The filming and editing make this look like it's from the early 70's. I'd say it's doom-worthy, but I started to fall asleep at the end.

The early '80s were an odd time for HK film. It was very schizophrenic back then. Jackie was trying to break the U.S. Check out Dragonlord from the same period.
