Demon Of The Lute (Hong Kong Version) VCD
YesAsia Editorial Description
Luckily for the human race, an odd bunch of heroes have banded together to take down the evil lute wielder. These brave souls include the beautiful swordswoman "Rainbow Sword" Feng Ling (Kara Hui Ying Hung, from My Young Auntie), an orphan "Flying Monkey" Yuan Fei (Chin Siu Ho, from Mr. Vampire), a happy-go-lucky thief (Philip Kwok Chun Fung, from Hardboiled) and his cute-as-a-button daughter Xiao Ding Dong (Kei Kong Hung). But it's going to take more than teamwork alone to destroy the lute. It seems our heroes must venture out on a quest to find the famed fire bow and arrows, the only weapons that can counter the devastating power of the lute! Featuring Lung Tien Hsiang and Jason Pai Piao in a scene-stealing performance, Demon Of The Lute is high-flying action epic, full of twists and turns, and plenty of high adventure!

Product Information
Director: Lung Yi Sheng
本片由龍逸昇編導,故事描述,女俠風靈(惠英紅)得悉「六弦魔琴」重現江湖,神秘人用以濫殺無辜,妄圖獨霸武林;唯一能剋制魔琴的只有火弦弓及火羽箭,卻只有袖手樵隱(龍天翔)知道弓與箭之下落;風靈找老頑童(元德)、神偷(郭追)、猿飛(錢小豪)等,一起往找樵隱;期間,眾人竟發現逍遙隱士就是六指琴魔(白彪)!在找到樵隱之前,琴魔為爭霸已陷瘋狂……
The "Scenario and Directed By" credit is rare, but Lung Yi-sheng warranted it for two memorable Shaw movies starring the lovely and lethal Hui Ying-hung. This is the first - a beautiful fight fantasy of lute demons, magical arrows, bottomless abysses, an arduous quest, hermaphrodites, a villain named "Red-Haired Evil," and a mischievous knight named "Old Naughty." It's little wonder Lung also directed, since another director might inadvertently deflate this delicate, but delightful, confection.

Fun!
| DEMON OF THE LUTE is another of those comic-book style wu xia films from the early 80's, in the same line as HOLY FLAME OF THE MARTIAL WORLD, BUDDHA'S PALM and to a degree the Yuen Clan comedies such as MIRACLE FIGHTERS. In other words, you should expect a fast-paced film packed full of outlandish characters with strange martial arts skills and weird weapons, and for whom gravity is largely optional. For those that were first drawn to Hong Kong cinema by the early 90's wu xia, it's great to find films like this in the Shaw Brothers' catalogue, which prove that Tsui Hark and Ching Siu-Tung weren't the only people exploring the extremes of wire-based action in the 80's. I'm almost tempted to give it 9/10 for its inventiveness and ability to produce a grin even on a jaded viewer like myself, but the execution isn't quite good enough to get that extra point :) |

| What a shame this picture really is.Although you are warned in the intro that this movie is "for kids" the incredible cast is mesmerizing. It just sucks that amazing talents such as Kuo Choi.Kara Hui Ying Hung and Yuen Tak have to play such silly roles.The camera work is so incredibly fast that you dont get a chance to see the amazing abilities of these three Shaw veterans, who are responsible for some of the best martial arts films ever made in my opinion. |
