水晶雕塑竟可四出殺人
江湖暗戰原來局中有局
本片改編自著名武俠小說家黃鷹的同名小說，由華山於1983年執導。故事講述龍飛(白彪 飾)精心雕琢的水晶美人像忽然失蹤後，多名黑道高手離奇被殺，江湖傳言乃水晶人變成精靈殺人之所為。龍飛經過連番追蹤後，終發現水晶人(劉玉璞 飾)乃日后(陳思佳 飾)訓練之殺手。水晶人揭發江湖廝殺之真正幕後人，實為偽裝王爺的天帝(王戎 飾)……
Hua Shan combined the skills of directing both The Criminals trilogy as well as the superheroic Super Inframan in this "Martial Arts World" adventure of a mystical mass murderer loose in the underworld. Noble Pai Piao discovers that the killings are the work of a living statue trained to assassinate by the title demon … and that more murderous statues are on their way if he doesn't stop them. The poison darts and booby traps keep flying in this unusual and popular epic.

"Portrait In Crystal" is the kind of entertaining actioner for which one needs a roadmap to follow its complicated plot. For me, however, it was better not to worry about all the fine points, but instead just enjoy all endless action, the delightfully cheesy special effects, the beautiful dames, and the derring-do from Pai Piao. Long Fei (Pai Piao) has retired from the martial arts world to wile away his time making crystal sculptures. He particularly likes one of his creations, but finds it a bit lifeless. To bring it to life, he cuts his finger and spills drops of blood on it. The sculpture immediately comes to life as a crystal spirit. Next we visit bad guy Poison Yama (Deng Wei Hao) and he's not happy. His henchmen have been getting slaughtered and it appears that a mysterious crystal spirit is to blame. Yama connects the dots and figures that Long Fei is to blame. Much swashbuckling swordplay ensues. Long Fei wants to get to the bottom of this situation and he tracks down the so-called crystal spirit to the lair of the evil (but comely) Du Sha (Chen Si Jia). More swashbuckling swordplay ensues. (In a lurid subplot, we learn that Du Sha has been depriving young women of their sanity, then turning them into mindless minions for her nefarious deeds.) Long Fei learns that behind all the mayhem lies the machinations of Du Sha's hubby, the evil Tian Di (Wang Rong). Clearly, we are heading toward one final climactic scene of swashbuckling swordplay ... and the filmmakers do not disappoint. Its hard to take any of "Portrait In Crystal" seriously, but it's all lots of fun and the martial arts are quite good. Pai Piao suits me just fine as a pure-hearted action hero. He looks the part and seems quite adept at pulling off his stunts. The final showdown between Pai and Wang Rong is a doozy. For light entertainment, don't overlook this enjoyable film. |
