The Brides of Fu Manchu British /West German Constantin Film co-production adventure crime film based on the fictional Chinese villain Dr. Fu Manchu , created by Sax Rohmer . It was the second film in a series, and was preceded by The Face of Fu Manchu The Vengeance of Fu Manchu The Blood of Fu Manchu The Castle of Fu Manchu Harry Alan Towers for Hallam Productions. Like the first film, it was directed by Don Sharp , and starred Christopher Lee as Fu Manchu. Nigel Green was replaced by Douglas Wilmer as Scotland Yard detective Nayland Smith .[3]
The action takes place mainly in London , where much of the location filming took place.
In 1924, Dr. Fu Manchu, his army of dacoits and his vicious daughter Lin Tang are kidnapping the daughters of prominent scientists and taking them to his hidden base in the Atlas Mountains , where he demands that their fathers help him to build a device that transmits blast waves through a radio transmitter, which he intends to use to take over the world. He plans to keep (even wed) the girls in question. But Dr. Fu Manchu's archenemy, Nayland Smith of Scotland Yard , is determined not to let that happen.[4]
Credits adapted from the booklet of the Powerhouse Films Blu-ray boxset The Fu Manchu Cycle: 1965-1969 .[5]

Production [ edit ]
Sharp recalled producer Harry Alan Towers used the film to showcase "young and beautiful actresses". It was shot at Bray Film Studios (UK ) . Nigel Green was not available to repeat his performance as Nayland Smith so he was replaced by Douglas Wilmer. Sharp recalled filming went "smoothly but already the signs were there that" Towers could make Fu Manchu movies without having to "worry too much because the stories were okay. Well, there was more to making the movies than that."[6]
