Peter Sellers's final film, released posthumously. In these circumstances, it adds a certain something, if not exactly humor, for him to take on the role of an enfeebled Fu Manchu, who at 168 years old has still not managed to conquer the world and is now gathering the secret ingredients for a youth-restoring elixir vitae -- as well as the role of Nayland Smith, Fu's foe from Scotland Yard, who, since his last bout of torture at the hands of Fu's henchmen, has gone deep into retirement and cultivated a profound friendship with a lawnmower. Directed by Piers Haggard. (1980) — Duncan Shepherd
This movie is not currently in theaters.
