the blood of fu manchu (1968)

aka Fu Manchu and the Kiss of Death. Kiss of Death. Kiss and Kill. Against All Odds.
"You have been chosen to take part in a great mission."
Fu Manchu (Christopher Lee) has discovered an ancient poison in the Amazon and uses it to infect ten women. They are then sent to kill ten world leaders in a fiendish plot to take over the world. Being the first to receive the 'kiss of death', Nayland Smith (Richard Greene), Scotland Yard's finest detective, is is up against the poison coursing through his veins and has to find and defeat Manchu's plans.
The fourth film in a series sees Franco deliver a thriller, which though far from perfect, (spending too much time on distracting sub-plots), delivers a good looking and entertaining adventure.
