Reviews/Synopsis
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please go to the following website for detailed information:
This has to be the most bizarre kung fu movie I've ever seen. Can't say too much without giving away the rather crazy story except to say that John Chang ("Snake In the Monkey's Shadow") arrives in a small town and somehow gets on the wrong side of the local baddie (Dean Shek, from "Snake In the Eagle's Shadow"), while the heavy's minions are mysteriously and violently killed by an unknown force.
For part of the movie, you feel like you're a standard, low-grade, late 70s kung fu movie (which you are), and then it gets crazy. Really really crazy -- like now you're in a b-monster movie. At the end, you're astounded by the ridiculousness of the entire story... but strangely amused, too, but the kung fu is fast and furious through the whole movie! Excellent fight scenes and styles!
Putting aside the movie itself and dealing with the DVD, this particular version has a rather poor transfer. Full-screen and occasionally the people talking on screen are cut out of the picture.
In some spots, dialogue is missing, and there tends to be a lot of hiss throughout the movie. Dubbing is atrocious with no subtitles, and no original language.
Anyways, even with that truth, this is a MUST HAVE for Classic Kung Fu movie lovers!
This was personally encoded by me, Carjacker, from the Retail Edition DVD.
Leave your thoughts/opinions and ratings on the A/V of this film for others to see. Thanks!
Pease SEED as you DL so others may also enjoy the movie!
NOTE: This torrent is seeded as a SUPERSEED (INTIAL SEEDING) by me, so, if you dont seed, you wont receive or receive at the optimum speed.
