Killer Constable (English version)
Martial Arts Mayhem
•
1h 38m
1980 • Hong Kong • Directed by Kuei Chih-Hung
Kuei Chih-hung was famous for his modern day crime thrillers, his horror flicks, and even his comedies. But even though the only wuxia film he ever made was this one, he is still spoken of with respect by even the most ardent martial arts movie fan. Many consider this real life martial arts champion Chen Kuan-tai’s best performance. As a deeply, even obsessively, dedicated Chief Court Constable, he illuminates the screen with fighting skill and emotional passion. Award-winning actor Ku Feng is his equal, playing an especially homicidal robber-chief who thinks nothing of throwing all his men at their relentless pursuer. This is the English version.
