Axe Gang
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Axe Gang is a fictional gang that has appeared in a few Hong Kong martial arts films, the most recent being Kung Fu Hustle.
The Axe Gang has control over Hong Kong and uses axes as their weapon of choice. The Gang also appears in Project A Part II and Drunken Master II. In the film Kung Fu Hustle, the Axe Gang is run in a way very similar to the Italian crime mafia families, or might be considered in comparison to the major Chinese Triads. The Axe Gang is led by "Brother Sum" in Kung Fu Hustle. Two crossed axes forming an "X" can be seen as their recognizable logo in Kung Fu Hustle, which many if not all members have tattooed on their bodies somewhere, visible or otherwise. They are an extremely large gang and attack in massive numbers and with complete brute force however their members are very weak against a kung fu master, and have to rely on there overwhelming force to win battles.
The gang is shown doing dance moves in Kung Fu Hustle reminiscent of 50's musicals.
