剧情简介: While we are experiencing a wonderful restoration and re-release of some of the great HK kung fu flicks from the 1960 thru the 80\'s, the concurrently produced fare from Taiwan is still in a state of disrepair. None of the Taiwanese directors have much fame here in the US except for King Hu. Director Yu Kang Ping is a complete mystery to me except that he thought well enough of himself that he placed photographs of him directing the film during the opening credits.The plot is firmly within the confines of the wuxia / martial world genre. A famous kung fu family is all massacred by masked assailants except for the blind daughter of the clan patriarch. She is sheltered by renown fighter Hsiao-Fang who has taken on the task of finding the killers and killing them. The leaders of the martial world are distressed by Hsiao- Fang\'s revenge and they hire super-killers to dispose of Hsiao-Fang. A young orphan comes across Hsiao-Fang rescuing an ambushed swordsman from highway robbers. The boy comes under the protection of Hsiao-FAng and moves into his hidden mansion where the young girl is living.Yu Kang Ping certainly has a style to his direction and the film is lively despite the average plot line with it\'s twists and turns that didn\'t surprise me at all. The fighting is very stylized with lots of poses and the rhythmic movements from Peking Opera. Fights start at the drop of a pin but the interesting dramatic flourishes raise the film above a lot of others.Unfortunately, like other Taiwanese films of the time, the print available is not very good and the video transfer doesn\'t help. Several scenes are very dark and the color is mushy. This looks like a transfer done about 20 years ago.Recommended, especially if a new transfer comes out.
