My friend, who is big Sammo's fan and has a huge collection of his movies, said that Sammo starred in Tiger of Northland, where he isn't listed in DB. Please add him to the cast list here.

And he has also a movie called "Kung fu stars" which I couldn't find on our DB, but I found it on IMDB :) - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0373986/, but my friend that from the cast list on IMDB the only one who is really in the movie is Sammo. He said there are also Jason Pai Piao and Wilson Tong in the movie

Sorry, my mistake, he thought that I'm asking him about the other movie. He said that in "Kung fu stars" starred Sammo Hung, Jason Pai Piao, Wilson Tong, Eric Tsang and Fung Hak On. he didn't noticed if Yuen Biao, Lam Ching Ying or Billy Chan are in the movie. They could be as extras or as a stuntmen, but I suppose not to add them to this movie yet.

He ordered these movies some years ago, and doesn't remeber now where from, and haven't time to watch them, because he ordered more and more movies that he watched. He watched these two finally only a week ago. He has a lot of still unwatched movies, and he said that he have 5 more movies where Sammo Hung might be in them, but not registered in HKMDB yet - he'll watch them soon.

I cannot create a new movie without the chinese title.

Have anybody seen "Tiger of Northland" to check that info?
I cannot find nothing to check it.

I took another quick look at Tiger of Northland. Sammo is indeed there, but only briefly, in a fight near the end of the film.

Regarding "Kung Fu Stars", the film on DVD has the following title screen Image
but it looks like it was inserted into the video later, so it's not clear if that was the original title.

The DVD is no longer available from retail stores in the USA, but some copies can be found on Ebay. This is the DVD cover (the DVD has two films)
