Challenge Of Death [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure What the dickens were they thinking?! Between the director, Wang Tao and Chang Yi, somebody was definitely hooked on 'stupid'. Crap.
The Kung Fu Emperor (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Bad, bad, bad!!!! Go figure!! Not worth it. I blame it all on the director. Such a pity for the great Ti Lung.
The 7 Commandments Of Kung Fu (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I'm really very disappointed in seeing Chang Yi in this flick, particularly because of the fact that he seemed totally unsophisticated. I think this must've been one of his earlier movies when he was just getting into the martial arts world, because he seemed so unpolished and without finesse.
He did better, more impressive movies in later years, such as "18 Jade Arhats", "Shaolin Mystagogue", "Shaolin Traitors" and so on. On the other hand, the guy playing the main character is so dumb looking. Who the hell is he ?!
Overall, this movie shouldn't have had even made it to the big screens, much less DVD... It's pathetic!
Fatal Needles vs. Fatal Fists (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Could've been better...! "Eagle's Claw" is a better flick. This seemed like a remake of "Eagles Claw", or does have a lot of similarities, but Wang Tao's performance was too lame. I hated the fact that the great Lo Lieh was only in it for 5 minutes, then got killed. Chang Yi was also not very impressive.
The Death Duel Of Kung Fu [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I give this movie 2 stars only [out of 5], merely for gravity of content in the storyline. The cinematography is also excellent. The guy who played the villain is so fake and stupid looking, they probably didn't even need him. His costumes and make-up, especially his hair do, are crap looking. I wish they'd use either Lo Lieh, Hwang Jang Lee or Chang Yi as the main villain. Wang Tao and John Liu are excellent nonetheless. Like I said, great story, Wang and John's prestige holds up the film, but it loses out with the guy playing the villain. Overall, it is crap, I'm dumping it, 'cause it's not what I like or wanted. Sorry John and Wang, I love you guys, but I just have to trash this one.
AGREE?

This is an excellent movie and lowering the rating based on the villain's hairdo is beyond lame.
