What is unacceptable is why the Chinese fiancée of the second male king was played by a foreign girl. The Chinese face was so unwelcome in Hollywood back then.
The appearance of the big villain zombie is very Fu Manchu, Fu Manchu represents the yellow peril, the Westerners vilify the Chinese. Charlie Chen is a positive image, a detective. Although the image is not handsome enough, Hollywood should co-produce Charlie Chen's film with the mainland.
Jackie Chan's "A Good Man" seems to plagiarize a gang funeral.
Cantonese like "Xingjia Shovel" appears in the film, very authentic.
Some of the designs of the underground palace are still good, such as the water monster and the bottomless well.
Liu Zhenwei's "The Home of the Dead" was obviously influenced by this film.
