Viewing Notes

TIL Ching Li and Li Ching are two different actresses that worked for the Shaw Brothers. Now I’m wondering how many titles have them incorrectly listed at TMDb.

This not an anthology since it only has two main stories and no wraparound. Both are interesting but not great. The first one that features Ching Li is neat for the crazy modern house. The second story has some explicit nudity, more than usual.

Still a watchable film and one that should be a part of a proper Shaw horror set.
