‘The Blonde Fury’ was American martial arts star Cynthia Rothrock’s last film under her Golden Harvest contract. Shot under the title ‘Lady Reporter’, the bulk of the film was directed by Rothrock’s then boyfriend, Mung Hoi. After reviewing the footage, the studio decided they needed extensive reshoots. They brought in action director Corey Yuen, who shot additional scenes featuring two American martial arts experts, Vincent Lyn and Jeff Falcon. A whole new end sequence was filmed on a stage at the Golden Harvest studios. Though not a hit in the Asian market, ‘The Blonde Fury’ sold well internationally, where Rothrock was still popular from her video hit ‘China O’Brien’ movies.
The finished film was a worthy send off from Golden Harvest to their only female international star. Standout sequences saw Rothrock engage in a bamboo scaffolding battle, duel kickboxer Billy Chow, duke it out with the aforementioned Lyn and Falcon AND take on a Thai boxing fighter. Between the fight footage shot by Mung Hoi and that shot by Corey Yuen, action fans got their fill of this ‘Blonde Fury’.
