Demon of the Lute (Cantonese version)
Demon of the Lute
•
1h 46m
1983 • Hong Kong • Directed by Tang Tak-Cheung
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. This is the Cantonese version.
