I'll put it up for others to see.<br /><br />As I wrote in my review, I'm pretty sure (but not positive) that the Bruce Lei in this film is aka Steve Lee of 'Steel Fisted Dragon' fame. As for the other creits, I'll just leave 'em as is (whether they turn out to be correct or not) until I can get my hands on something concrete. Man-O-man, this film has really become quite a bugaboo...Films from the Far Reacheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052667879546997979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5058405254410710748.post-6011506099701399752012-08-15T14:07:44.658-07:002012-08-15T14:07:44.658-07:00Thanks for your quick reply and the category edit!...Thanks for your quick reply and the category edit!<br />First part of COBRA (1977) including Indonesian credits:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGXIAV6jNW8<br /><br />My general info from Google & Co. was at first very similar to yours above - released 1981, either HK or Philippines, by Joseph Velasco.<br />That still does not fit with the Indonesian COBRA from 1977 starring, amongst others, the rather well known Indonesian actor Rd. (Raden) Mochtar. It also shows an Indonesian production permit number at the end, so it was really produced there. <br /><br />Would be interested to hear if it is really the same movie!Jweberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15496549994107170475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5058405254410710748.post-72180664311210530482012-08-15T10:56:25.249-07:002012-08-15T10:56:25.249-07:00Jweber, thanks for the info.

Calling it a Phillipino film was a brain fart from me and I'll change it in my blog. <br /><br />Couldn't find it on youtube so not 100% sure if it is the same film we're talking about, but it likely is.Films from the Far Reacheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052667879546997979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5058405254410710748.post-53632689434864820692012-08-15T09:45:49.049-07:002012-08-15T09:45:49.049-07:00I found this review while researching an Indonesia...I found this review while researching an Indonesian movie called "Cobra" as well. <br />The storyline given above sounds identical, but judging by credits my version is definitely an Indonesian movie: Screenplay is attributed to Ganes TH., an Indonesian comic book author, director is Rempo Urip, and the BL-clone is a guy called Steven Lee.<br />Although there are dubbing credits as well, I am fairly sure that my version is an Indonesian production, even up to the car plates in one scene. <br />That Indonesian version is dated 1977 on the web, and can also be found in 3 parts on youtube (just search for "cobra Indonesia"). <br />Is it the same movie, or is one of them possibly a remake of the other one?Jweberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15496549994107170475noreply@blogger.com
