Bruce Lee in New Guinea (1978)

[Drunk Monk]

The trailer says ‘Terrible Fights’
Got that right.
It’s Bruce Li versus a snake wizard who has Bolo Yeung as a hench. Chiu Chi-Ling is credited here but I didn’t see him. Yue Tao-wan, who has made a career out of being cross eyed, is a guide, along with To Siu-Ming, who can also cross his eyes. They steal some bananas from some natives in an early moment of comic relief. Best of all is there’s a snake pit full of real live snakes and a dude in a gorilla suit doing gorilla Kung Fu. 
The version I watched was in terrible condition with long black out moments, varying sound loudness (one sound burst made me jump), and bleached out film. Seen on hoopla.

There’s no reason to watch this whatsoever. It’s somewhat of a cult fav, at least it’s been preserved for its quirkiness, but ultimately it’s just not weird enough to work. It’s only passingly odd.

I regret watching it but I felt it was my duty to the genre because it comes up from time to time.
