Viewing Notes

Lives in that subgenre owned by The Seventh Curse, and is a nice attempt to be like that film. Crazy setpieces, stopmo monsters and batshit scenes. Afterwards I learn it was directed by Lam Nai-Choi!! Hahahahaha

He had quite the run thru the eighties.

Oh yeah Kara Wai and Philip Kwok are stunt casted!! Incredible
