Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not bad
Review: Well, its hardly another "Secret Rivals," or
"Death Duel" but as you might guess (if you know
your chop-socky), its a semi-inspired take on the
film Wong Tao co-stars in (though he
wears more or less the same uniform from
Death Duel!).

Actually, the central character is more inspired by
the biblical story of Samson, whose hair was the source
of his divine power. Well, in this flick, Wong's hair
is the source of his 'martial' powers. It would have
been nice if they told us 'how' or even 'why' this was
possible, but its left up to our imaginations.

Not as exciting as other works by Wong Tao (I think
Thomas Tang and Godfrey Ho had their hands in this movie,
nuff said), its a nice addition for the WT completist.
Don't pay more than a few bucks for this, as it is a boot
from some crusty old VHS and is cropped, cut, and dubbed
by the devil (heh). A reasonably solid korean old-skooler.
