Eight-Diagram Pole Fighter (1983)
Eight-Diagram Pole Fighter (1983)
Spear on Spear Fu; Spear on Nun-Chuck Fu; Santa Claus Hat Fu!
The Sisters: Hot chicks!
The Mother: Hot chick with hair and eyebrows dyed white.
Rice Ball Fu; House in the Swamp Fu; Alley Oop Fu!
A boy's best friend is his: Kung Fu Mother! (Mother shakes head.)
Where can a guy: Get a haircut around here?
Mother: the monk is rude!
You can't break rules: In front of the Budha!
Sister #8: Played by a very very young Kara Wai!
Mechanical Wolf Fu; Poles of the Righteous Fu; Splits Fu; Coffin Fu; Corpse Fu; Papoose Fu (AKA Piggy-back Fu); Knock Their Teeth Out FU!
Choreographed and directed by Liu Chia-liang AKA Lau Kar-leung (Drunken Master 2). Imo, the best choreographed and just plain best of the Shaw Brothers Kung Fu films.
I think it is also inarguably the darkest. The last 20 - 30 minutes are sadistically violent fight scenes, where it looks as though Sister #8 castrates a villain (cheers from the audience), although it is alluded to rather than shown. But they are great.
A masterpiece. Check it out on a big screen.
