8 Movies Where Extras Got Totally Trolled
6. Extras & Stuntmen Were Hired From Rival Triad Families - Enter The Dragon
It truly felt like Bruce Lee was just getting started when his untimely swan song, Enter the Dragon, was released. It was, at least, a thrilling testament to his skills as a martial artist, and remains one of the genre's finest entries almost 50 years on.
Despite the obvious challenges of an American and Hong Kong co-production, shooting seemed to go relatively smoothly for the most part, aside from when Lee had to bust out his real fighting chops on a number of people who broke into the film's set.
But there was some added drama due to a gaffe on the part of the casting department, who hired local Hong Kong stuntmen and extras to fill out the background and take hits where necessary.
Unfortunately, the extras were a mix of individuals from rival Triad families, resulting in fights often breaking out on set between the various factions.
Given the absolute serious business that Triad warfare is, this certainly isn't something worth trifling with, even on a martial arts movie set.
