Viewing Notes
Goofy, low budget, some terrible acting and wildly chaotic fight choreography. In short, it was pretty awesome! There’s just an amazing amount of crazy stuff that happens in this film which borrows heavily from Shaw Brothers Wuxia films, CONAN THE BARBARIAN and RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK.
Films like this are great because the transcend all their weaknesses and represent the true spirit of independent film making.
