Rasputin the Mad Monk
Rasputin, the Mad Monk is a 1966 Hammer film directed by Don Sharp and starring Christopher Lee as Grigori Rasputin, the Russian peasant- mystic who gained great influence with the Tsars prior to the Russian Revolution.
It also features Barbara Shelley, Francis Matthews, Suzan Farmer, Richard Pasco, Dinsdale Landen and Renée Asherson.
The story is largely fictionalized, although some of the events leading up to Rasputin's assassination are very loosely based on Prince Yusupov's account of the story.
For legal reasons, the character of Yusupov was replaced by Ivan( Matthews).
Yusupov was still alive when the film was released, dying on 27 September 1967.
The emphasis is on Rasputin's terrifying powers both to work magic and to seduce women.

Ji Gong( 濟公, pinyin: Jì Gōng; The Mad Monk in English) is a 1993 Hong Kong comedy film directed by Johnny To, and starring Stephen Chow as the" Mad Monk" Ji Gong, a popular Chinese folklore figure from the Southern Song Dynasty.

Rasputin (1928 film)
Rasputin, The Prince of Sinners (German: Dornenweg einer Fürstin), or simply Rasputin, is a 1928 German-Soviet drama film co-directed by Nikolai Larin and Boris Nevolin and starring Vladimir Gajdarov, Suzanne Delmas and Ernst Rückert.
The film's poster showed the tagline "rysslands onda ande", which translates as "Russia's Evil Spirit".
The film's sets were designed by Carl Ludwig Kirmse.
This film is sometimes confused with another 1928 German silent film made about Rasputin called "Rasputin, the Holy Sinner".
This being the only known German-Russian co-production ever done about Rasputin, the filmmakers were able to shoot the film at or near the historical places where the real life incidents portrayed actually occurred.
In 1928, the Russian royalty was interested in showing Rasputin as the monster he really was, rather than try to illicit sympathy for the character.
He is depicted as a sexually promiscuous alcoholic with abhorrent manners, similar to the manner in which Hammer Films later portrayed him in their 1966 Christopher Lee film, "Rasputin the Mad Monk".
