Although this may seem like the premise for a routine horror film, this is anything but. The movie is shot with lurid, unnatural colors, and the tone is that of a peppy after-school film. The characters are chipper and very likable. However, the violence is surprisely brutal -- but only in a cheerful sort of way. It's like no other film I've seen.

Kliou the Tiger + Legong, Dance of the Virgins (1936/1935) * NEW

A double-feature of rare early Asian films -- two of the last silent films ever produced. Kliou concerns the efforts of a community -- one young man in particular -- to hunt down a man-eating tiger who seems to have a vendetta against their village. Legong tells the story of an ill-fated young maiden and her doomed love for a young man. It was filmed in the rare Two-Strip Technicolor process. While both of these films offer a glimpse into fascinating cultures quite different from western norms, the main reason these films were produced was the plethora of young, topless, Asian cuties. There is an abundance of nudity featuring lovely young woman, quite a thrill for the post-code, western filmgoers.

Kung Fu Arts: Horse, Monkey and Tiger (1978) * NEW

This one has a very odd plot, or have I said that before? A princess is sick and her father promises her hand in marriage to whomever can cure her. In walks a chimpanzee doctor, carrying a flask of magic elixir. He checks her vitals, gives her the medicine and she recovers quickly. Now she must fulfill her father's promise and marry the chimp. Meanwhile, there is a traitor in the family's midst, and they are suspicious of the wrong man. A Tarzan like boy (who can control animals) helps to find proof of the real culprit.

Kung Fu Master (1993, aka - Kung Fu Cult Master)

Super Martial arts/fantasy film, with crazy action, lots of likable characters, endearing humor, and a complicated but involving plot. Jet Li, Sammo Hung, Man Cheung, Chingmy Yau and Richard Ng head an all-star cast. Faithful remake of the 1978 Shaw Brothers classic, Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre. Obviously filmed as the first installment of a two film series -- but part two was never made. However, if you'd like to see the continuation / climax of the story, you can check out Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre 2.

This off-the-wall production has so much going on, it's hard to keep track of everything. There's an evil master harvesting souls, green-haired ghosts, gyonsi parents trying to raise their vampire kids, an assortment of other demons/monsters, plus two of the greatest Asian female action stars of the era -- the adorable Lin Hsiao Lam and the incredible Yukari Oshima -- actually, Yukari pretty adorable too.

A jailed criminal hires an unscrupulous Taoist priest to raise the dead, in order to get revenge on the man who caused his arrest. Things don't go exactly as planned, and the criminal dies -- but his angry spirit enters the body of his adversary's father. This makes for an interesting situation, as the hero must battle a zombified version of his undead father. Great action and lots of fun.
