HK remake (almost scene-to-scene) of Sergio Sollima's "Agente 3S3 Passaporto per l'Inferno" ("Passport to Hell"). Produced by Shaw Brothers Singapore Branch, it was shot simultaneously in two version: the HK/Chinese/International version and also in a malaysian-only local version titled "Jefri Zain - Gerak kilat" where all the main actors have been replaced with local malaysian stars. The malaysian version has never been released internationally and only exist in a sub-quality local VCD made in the early 2000's. The "Jefri Zain" trilogy basically is exactly the "Angel with iron fists" trilogy where all the main chinese or singaporean carachters have been replaced by local malaysian actors while keeping intact and identical all the remaining scenes and side actors. At the same time the whole trilogy (both in the HKese version and in the malaysian version) are remakes of international (mainly italian) spy movies shot shortly before
