The 'Scenario and Directed By' credit is rare, but Lung Yi-sheng warranted it for two memorable Shaw movies starring the lovely and lethal Kara Hui. 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.
