Viewing Notes

Damn. This is such a crazy movie but one I would kill to see on the big screen.

This is the story about Bai Ma, a magical princess, being hunted by the Evil King and his minions. On her journey she identifies warriors that become part of her posse, each representing an animal in the Chinese zodiac. Completely batshit crazy with an Evil King who is a giant. Siu Huen (Snake) is delicious as the evil queen. Lam Siu-Lau is the badass Dragon (again cast in a male role).

Apparently Lu Feng is in this however I don’t recall seeing him unless he’s the heavily made up Evil King. If I could find this on DVD I’d buy it. Supposedly only released to VCD but this really needs a proper release. It’s amazing.
