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. |
