The Far East picks a fight Down Under in The Man From Hong Kong, a cult martial arts action extravaganza from Ozploitation legend [[Brian Trenchard-Smith]] ([[Dead End Drive-In]], [[Turkey Shoot]] and [[BMX Bandits]]).


When Hong Kong Inspector Fang Sing Leng ([[Jimmy Wang Yu]], [[Master of the Flying Guillotine]]) travels to Sydney to interview drug trafficker Win Chan (martial arts star and director [[Sammo Hung]]) he is flung into an international investigation destined to test his mettle and might.
