Legendary Taiwanese Horror Fantasy Now in English!
Original
Chinese Title: GONGFU QIJI ZIAOHAI (Kong Fu Wonder Child)
director: Lee Tso Nam
starring: Lin Hsiao Lan · Yukari Oshima · Chiang Wang
(as Jack Long) · Shan Chang · Lin Yu-Chie
For the most
part, the film itself defies comprehension. While the plot has something
to do with an evil wizard who travels around stealing souls and putting
them in jars, the action deals mostly with the Wonder Child (Lin Hsiao
Lan in a role very similar to the one she played in MAGIC
OF SPELL) and the attempt to stop the villain and his wicked army.
This madcap
horror/fantasy has everything that puts Asian fantasy in a class by itself!
Magic spells, zombies, human skin masks, barbaric magicians, flying kung
fu action, irreverent humor. It stars fighting diva Yukari * Oshima and
frolicsome Lin Hsiao Lan (again playing a male character as she did in
MAGIC
WARRIORS and MAGIC
OF SPELL). Filmmaker Lee Tso Nam has been making motion pictures
since 1969; he is better known for numerous old school kung fu efforts
like EAGLE'S
CLAW, Shaolin vs Lama, el al). After 40+ films,
he is still active today directing movies in China under the name Li Zuonan.
