Filmography
| | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A tough Detroit cop (Carl Weathers) goes on a manhunt for drug dealers. | Dellaplane's Chauffeur
The head honcho Dellaplane's chauffer and right hand man. He is only visible for a couple of minutes, total. First, there's a brief closeup of him watching Craig T. Nelson as he whoops the hell out of one of his karate students. A short while later, the villain finds it necessary to shoot Sharon Stone through the gut after she has fallen for the hero. Leong bursts in the door, gun in hand, to see what the trouble is. | Once the karate kid has been severely beaten, Dellaplane tells Leong to take him away — thus leading to his only dialogue in the film: "Yes, sir." | During one of the climactic battle scenes. He only has time to show off a few martial arts tornado kicks before some large black man puts a bullet in the poor guy. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A ruthless cop (Eddie Murphy) searches a large theme park for a money counterfeiter. | (nameless mook)
This role doesn't even warrant a character name for Leong. In the very opening scene it shows a group of mechanics doing their respective work on various automobiles. | Leong is innocently whistling to The Supremes... | ...when enemy uzi fire cuts him down. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | Trucker Jack Burton (Kurt Russell) ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time when his friend recruits him for a rescue mission into the depths of Chinatown. | Wing Kong Hatchet Man
One of Leong's most remembered roles is that of one of the lead Wing Kong thugs. This role provides Leong more screen time and action than most of his "nameless thug" roles: he battles yellow turbans in an alleyway, twirls his cleavers with great skill, and fights for his life with a pole arm in the climactic battle. | A raucous scream as the alley fight begins. | In the final battle, when a good guy slices open his belly, and his insides become his outsides. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | Two high school dufuses (Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter) are granted the gift of a time traveling phone booth so that they can pick up historical figures for a major school report. | Genghis Khan
The great Mongolian barbarian, Genghis Khan. This role may be one of his most recognizable roles ever. In the movie, he is brought to 1988 to help two boys with their history report. His memorable scenes include chomping on a piece of meat and then molesting an attractive Mongolian servant, and trading in his club and helmet for a stainless steel softball bat and a football helmet in a sporting goods store | Grunts and Mongolian chatter. He also says "Bogus!" when he and Billy the Kid are surrounded by police on an ice rink. | In 1227 AD. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A ruthless cop (Michael Douglas) hunts down members of the Japanese Yakuza. | (nameless mook)
A bad guy. In the final siege on the enemy base, it shows a few guys with coolie hats, walking around in back, talking to each other. Then one of them promptly removes a handgun from his shirt and blows away one of the guards. He then takes off his hat to reveal that it is Al Leong (cue dramatic music). It's hard to tell his exact role, but apparently he is posing as a gardener before silently doing away with one of the other bad guys. But a few seconds later he's trying to make his getaway when the good guy sidekick guns him down. | Something muttered in Japanese. | Gunned down like a dog — by the sidekick! — while trying to get away. | Cage (film) (1989) | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | Two brothers that get dragged down into an underworld of cage fighting. Unfortunately, one of the brothers (Lou Ferrigno) was wounded in the Vietnam War, creating sort of an Of Mice and Men dynamic between the characters. | "Tiger Joe" Lowell
When it starts, there is an undercover reporter who is secretly taking pictures of the cage matches in an underground arena. She snaps a few shots, and turns to see that Al Leong (extreme closeup) is watching her intently. So she takes off in her car. And big Leong steps out of the shadows to watch her go, lighting himself a cigarette. There are a few more gratuitous closeups before he finally confronts this female reporter, cornering her in a busy street. He takes her to the enemy hideout and reports to Mr. Yin (the head honcho) while he's in the middle of a conference. Unfortunately, one of the men there seems to recognize him and delivers a crushing blow to Leong's crotch, accusing him of being a cop. So he's hauled off to the little prison there, along with the reporter and one of the brothers who has been captured. So the three of them team up and escape, then go running through the bad guy hideout in search of the less-intelligent hero. One thing leads to another, and in the end there is a violent shootout in the arena. | "Do you really think you're fooling anyone, Miss Garrett?" - Leong to the reporter when he catches her taking the pictures.

"No sir, I don't think so," and "I don't know you, sir," - to the guy accusing him of being an undercover officer.
"I'm detective Joe Lowell. Who are you?" - to the good guys when they are rallied in the cell.
"Yeah, there's a lieutenant that keeps a close eye on me, but by the time he figures out I'm in trouble it may be too late. I've already reported in for the day. He won't expect to hear from me again 'til tomorrow. Maybe he'll hear the shots. I hate to change the subject, but do you notice how the cheering has stopped? The first fight must be over." - Leong's essay while trying to make chit chat with the other prisoners.
"Look, Yin. This guy may be bleeding internally. We need a doctor." - to the enemy after bailing the hero from the ring.
"And if he loses?" - to the villain while discussing the fate of the heroes.
"Well, it looks like all my suspects are dead. There'll be a new Tong leader before the night's over. Meantime I gotta find something to do with all this confiscated money. Weren't you people trying to rebuild a bar?" - Leong's good Samaritan speech at the end.
| Not only was Leong a good guy, but he lived. | Deadly Target (1994) | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A Hong Kong cop with an Australian accent goes to Los Angeles to track down a Hong Kong drug dealer with a Southern California accent. He tortures and kills various people in the process. | (nameless mook)
One of those people is Leong, who makes the mistake of helping the asshole cop find the bathroom when the asshole cop is pretending to be drunk. | Leong makes comforting smalltalk to the "drunk" as Leong helps him to the bathroom. | The cop offs Leong in the bathroom after Leong helps him get there. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A ruthless cop (Jean-Claude Van Damme) poses as a criminal to get information on a suspect. | Bruce
Bruce, a standard thug. He gets to show off some chain twirling skills in a rumble with Jean-Claude Van Damme. He also finds it necessary to wear his prison top open chested so we can get a look at his manly torso as he fights. Leong only has one fight scene, but it doesn't last long since Van Damme slams his head into a washing machine. | A few grunts as he is getting pummeled. | With his head in a washing machine, in one of his most unusual deaths. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A group of terrorists lead by Alan Rickman take over an office building to steal the contents of the safe. | Uli
He plays Uli, one of the terrorists. His big scene is when he breaks into a candy machine and steals a Nestle Crunch bar. Leong has a pretty vital role, actually. It's his job to place the explosives on the roof to blow the hostages to smithereens. Unfortunately, some cowboy from New York plugs him on his way back from the roof. | Such classic lines as "You got it." and "Move it! Come on! Let's Go!" | Toward the end while returning from the roof, shot by McClane (Bruce Willis). | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | An evil overlord (Robert Patrick) seeks the dual halves to a magical medallion that will give him power of the body and mind. | Lewis
Lewis, the villain's right hand man. In a decent-sized part, Al Leong once again ignites the screen, this time by running down the kids on foot through an abandoned theater and doing amusing stuff in the background. He gets fired towards the end, but nevertheless survives, and makes it to the very end scene. | A bunch, but it's all said in context with his counterpart, Jeff Imada, as they are trying to find work after being fired. They have signs saying that they will "hench for food." | Leong lives to hench another day. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) is recruited to go behind enemy lines to execute the president's daughter (A.J. Langer, of My So-Called Life) for wearing hotpants and "do me" boots. Snake is also supposed to retrieve a CD player thing that's a remote control for the universal "off" switch. | (nameless mook)
One of the Shadow Warriors who hangs with she-man Hershe (Pam Grier). Every time it shows her he's in the background doing henchman stuff, and he gets to do his fair share of fighting in this one as well. He goes medieval with his futuristic machine gun and gets to hang glide into the final battle scene. | Leong doesn't say anything, but he screams briefly when he dies. | After wiping out half a dozen villains, he climbs into a getaway chopper which gets hit with a rocket shortly after takeoff. He's the burning thug on the far left. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A gigantic lizard tears apart Manhattan. | (nameless cook)
One of the fishermen aboard the ship at the beginning. He gets a long closeup shortly before the big lizard takes a swipe at him. | Leong's dialogue is lost in the noise from the ship being torn apart. | Leong is sitting there, then a gigantic claw swings in front of him, and when it moves away, Leong is gone. It is inconclusive whether he was stomped, slashed, or drowned. In any case, Leong gets killed by Godzilla, and that has to count for something. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | This movie is typical cheesy Andy Sidaris softcore almost-porn. A nuclear trigger is being smuggled to the Middle East, and the "global balance of power is in jeopardy". A female federal agent goes undercover to steal it and ends up being murdered. Three other busty federal agents, all former Playboy playmates, along with their beefcake companions, have to save the day. An Ostrialyan accent is how thy talk in ostrialya. ...

| Raven
Raven, the ruthless henchman assigned to steal back the sacred jade from a bunch of Playboy models. He spends most of his time flying after them in a handy little chopper equipped with rockets and machine guns. He kills one of the main characters, and cops a feel as he "pats down the body". After that it's just more flying around and chatting with Kane, the villainous bad guy. This movie has some of the most screen time for him in his career. | Leong has a lot of lines, the most colorful of which is, "Those bitches must have the jade." | After stealing the jade back from the heroes, he is instructed to make another pass in his chopper and shoot them. But before he can get them in his sights, one of the scantily clad agents snatches up a grenade gun and blows him to smithereens. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | "Rambo" parody in which Topper Harley (Charlie Sheen) leads a rescue team into Iraq to save Iraqi war prisoners and all of their previous rescue teams. | (nameless pit-fighting fan)
An innocent bystander watching the pit fight towards the beginning. A slow motion button is needed to see him, but he is in the part where one of the pillars comes loose and the upper deck of fans goes tumbling off. The first soul to go over is none other than Leong. | None. | It's hard to tell whether or not he survives the fall. He probably does. | I Come In Peace (1990) | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A tough New York City cop (Dolph Lundgren) investigates a series of murders that have been performed by a belligerent mullet-wearing alien being. | Luggage Salesman
For some reason, an extraterrestrial packing a Calico isn't enough of an enemy in this film. So why not throw in a drug dealer as well? Leong plays an Asian luggage salesman who has apparently been dealing some sort of illegal substance. When Dolph goes under cover to investigate, Leong makes the typical movie mistake and pulls a gun on him instead of going quietly. In an unusual turn of events, this doesn't result in Leong's immediate death at the hands of the cop, and Leong is able to make his escape (but not for long). | "Don't be foolish. Tell the white boys to kiss my ass." - just before exiting the shop. | Just after leaving the shop. The hero (Dolph Lundgren) pursues Leong a few feet only to find his body propped up against an alley wall. It is unclear what exactly happened to him, but it would be a safe bet to say that the seven foot tall alien had something to do with it. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | Escaped prisoner Wellman Anthony Santee (Dolph Lundgren) seeks revenge for being framed for the murder of a patrol cop. After escaping from prison, he kidnaps a woman (who turns out to be a cop) and sets up a trap for the corrupt detective who framed him for murder. | Chinese Gunman #9
In the middle battle scene Dolph Lundgren blasts his way through the enemy base, killing henchmen left and right, including Leong. | None. | A few seconds after first being shown, from a shotgun blast through the stomach. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | An teenage movie buff gets magically sucked into an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie. | (nameless mook)
In another appearance as a villainous thug, Leong goes on a joyride in a large pickup as it gives chase to the hero (Arnold Schwarzenegger). | Nothing but a death grunt as he is done in by rocky road. | Leong fires several rounds with a pop-up machine gun before taking an ice cream cone to the head. Leong cements his reputation as an actor of quality on-screen-deaths, by dying from an ice cream cone and making it convincing. | | | | Synopsis | Leong's Role | Leong's Dialogue | Leong Dies | | A pair of ruthless cops, Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh go after drug dealers. | Endo
Endo, the villainous torturer/band director. He makes half of the viewing audience jealous by paddling Riggs' (Mel Gibson) naked chest in the shower. He also makes a couple of interesting faces as he electrocutes him. | "You call this music? I could get a band ten times as good for half the price. Now I want to pack this place tonight and I don't want to hear any of this shit. Now let's get it right." - Leong to the band. "He knows shit. We're safe. He'd have told us. Nobody can take that." - Leong to Mr. Joshua (Gary Busey) after torturing the hero. "Sorry pal. Say good night." - Leong to the frying man as he's about to put an end to him.
