Duel to the Death, or Xian si jue - The first half of the movie is actually kind of funkyinteresting. Ninjas versus Shaolin monks, which is kind of a fun comic book premise. In fact, the whole movie would be a wonderful comic book. Yes, it's old school to the point of Mystery Science Theater'ing itself, and/or not even needing the re-do of a Kung Pow kind of movie. But it has some pretty unique stylistic things going on. That, and as the scenes get closer and closer to the end they get so FUCKING ODD that they leave you watching the credits with your jaw literally hanging open and your hands clapped to your temples. I swear that was the position I was in for the last twenty minutes of that movie.
-It would be awesome if the world was actually like this
