The Black Dragon's Revenge - Ronnie Van Clief (1975) - Junction Road, Lok Fu

After their ambush at Lok Fu Park, the guys go to try and find the journalist who they were supposed to be meeting, only to find out he was murdered that morning. The scene involves a car driving along Junction Road in order to reach the guys house. The camera is placed at or close to the junction with Inverness Road, opposite the Chinese Christian Cemetery, and films the car driving from south to north. Interesting to note is the old ornamental archway that formed the old entrance to the cemetery. You can also see the old chapel inside the grounds. Sadly, the rather picturesque piece of Junction Road has been replaced by a rather bland flat building frontage that is marked on maps as the "ossuarium". This location is just down the slope from the previous Lok Fu Park location, so no doubt filmed around the same time.
