Ahhh... the movie American critics said was too silly and lacked any sense of logic. Like they never saw a Lunar New Year movie.
Playful and charming, with a couple of fantastic action scenes.

Back in '93, everyone into these films had Brigitte Lin fever, and people wanted to see it when they came to my house.

Swordsman II (1992)
Ching Siu-tung (director)
A hyperactive wuxia packed with undercranked action, wirework, and comedy.
The plot isn't as focused as the first film.
I first saw it theatrically in the '90s. Been a while since I've seen it.

Hong Kong horror!
Not really a sequel. It's a different story with some returning actors.
Has a look and style reminiscent of Italian horror. And worms.
