Not in the middle of the world, a curious product

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.

    Watching this film more than 30 years ago with a curious attitude, it was really sparse, even if it was in the past, it was not as good as the little monsters of the same period. Think about it 30 years ago, Europe and the United States should also shoot and watch this sparse movie with a curious mentality. The villain BOSS still has the shadow of Fu Manchu, and was killed by the protagonist in seconds. One villain looks like Chen Honglie and another like Chen Guantai

    strangerthings homework. Art is good. Set cool. The script and acting were all dropped. Get wild and fucked up. Cantonese anger brushes the sense of existence. Maybe it's the routine the Great Wall wants to learn. green emperor myth logic sosadsowrong
