While looking for something else, I came across an article about weird kung fu movies that I just had to share. Some of them are now on my 'to watch' list if I ever run across them. :D
Some excerpts:
* The first thing you’ll notice about Jade Dagger Ninja is that there are no ninjas in it. There’s also a distinct lack of jade daggers. However, there is a Jade Badger
* Bruce is played by three different (anonymous) actors. The director is credited as ‘Steve’ and the female lead as ‘Alice’.
* The highlight (besides maybe the tomato juice erotica) is James Hong’s cameo as a Shinto priest trying to expel the ninja’s evil spirit.
* [It] stars Yuen Cheung-Yan (who also directed) as an old drunk on a quest to find a virgin born on the 15th of August (yeah, these quests are getting pretty weirdly specific by now). In a dual role, he also reprises his drag character of ‘Granny’, an elderly female magician whose grandson Chiu (Yuen Yat-Chor) turns out to be a virgin born on the 15th of August.
Full article here, for anyone wanting the full bizarre picture.
