It's that rarest of things - a movie on this site that I'd actually quite like to watch! A sequel to popular martial arts flick The One-armed Boxer, this features possibly the most unrealistic weapon ever - a small be-fanged pair of circular curtains which cuts people's heads off. And it's wielded by an astonishingly angry old man with frankly terrifying eyebrows. The real star of the show is the Indian chap (who is quite obviously someone Chinese wearing make-up) and his zero-budget stretchy arms. Dhalsim from Street Fighter II may have copied this idea, but at least his limbs weren't quite obviously broom handles shoved up some elongated sleeves. The actual kung-fu action looks pretty good though, and there seem to be some interesting stunt scenes such as the barefoot balancing on knives. Favourite bit: It's a tie between the old bloke jumping through the roof of his house at the start, and Mr. Broom-handle-arms. |
