It's nice to have you around! <br /><br />Since you like <b>Fu Sheng</b> very much, be sure to check my older reviews of <b>Shaw Brothers</b> movies with <i>"Alexander the Great"</i>, if you haven't done so already! I also plan to analyze more of his films in the months ahead!<br /><br />At retail price or on sale, <i><b>TLH</b></i> is worth the cost!

I'll try and get it, along with some other stuff, ready over the weekend, or Monday, hopefully. I also found a few behind the scenes shots from LADY HERMIT! Maybe I can do a mini piece on Pei pei altogether with behind the scenes photos and other images?venoms5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655919099947763891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013834191197749232.post-63293279305973310682011-02-24T18:18:14.479-08:002011-02-24T18:18:14.479-08:00Take your time, venoms5!

Been busy the last couple days and haven't had much time, or even felt like posting anything.<br /><br />Hell, I think I stated on a prior article at CAC that her last flick was LADY HERMIT, too after reading that on on the IVL disc, lol.venoms5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655919099947763891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013834191197749232.post-40533985702277561492011-02-24T17:48:48.919-08:002011-02-24T17:48:48.919-08:00Thanks for reading the review, venoms5 (said a wid...Thanks for reading the review, <b>venoms5</b> (said a <i>wide-awake</i> Brother Fang)!<br /><br />I'd guess the only reason <i><b>TLH</b></i> would be barred in the UK might be because of the scene where Pei-pei chops the body parts (a head, a shoulder and a leg) off three of Black Demon's men in retaliation for the murder of Wang; it's as close the movie gets to being truly gruesome. I agree, there are movies out there <i>more</i> graphic in nature than<i><b>TLH</b></i> to be worried about!<br /><br />I've wondered about Celestial's statement regarding the timing of Pei-pei's leaving Shaw; a LOT of those bios have problems with them! If you've the spare time to dig up that magazine and double-check what it says, I'll <i>gladly</i> revise my paragraph with the wrong statement and give you credit!<br /><br />Thank you, ahead of time! :o)R.A.M.'67https://www.blogger.com/profile/12817535165296807817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5013834191197749232.post-42910865963993024982011-02-24T16:04:05.926-08:002011-02-24T16:04:05.926-08:00An intriguing assessment of a celebrated swordplay...An intriguing assessment of a celebrated swordplay epic, Fang! I haven't watched this one in quite some time and have yet to pick up the new DVD, but do have the IVL disc. A friend of mine in the UK linked me a site that showed LADY HERMIT was denied certification in the UK! Granted, the film is bloody, but I can think of far more gruesome Shaw flicks that would be denied release as opposed to this one. <br /><br />Some time back, I was going through some of my SS or HKMN mags and one of them states Pei pei quit Shaws and got on a plane to get married immediately after finishing up SHADOW WHIP as opposed to it being LADY HERMIT as has often been stated. I'll have to look for the mag to find it, but I ran across it a couple months back in regards to Pei Pei quitting the industry. It might have been a Cinemart magazine, too, now that I think about it, lol.venoms5https://www.blogger.com/profile/13655919099947763891noreply@blogger.com
