Viewing Notes

This movie is wild, which makes sense considering it’s directed by Chor Yuen who had his share of weird Shaw Brothers films. The entire film is shot on sound stages with some fascinating set design that borders on the fantastic/horrific which is even more emphasized through the excellent lighting throughout.

I can’t believe no one has release this on Blu-ray yet.
