Viewing Notes

Got my SB Vol 2 set today from Shout so I spun up this one which I hadn’t seen since the El Rey Network back in the day. Nice to view without commercials every 8 minutes and a good PQ transfer. Still not a great movie but fun to have Lo Lieh as the evil henchman with the boomerang blades doing the bidding for Ku Feng. Plus he gets some sexy time with Terry Lau.
