On WTF: The Imperial Swordsman (1972)

One of the great pleasures of this movie reviewing lark is to stumble upon fantastic films by mere chance. Case in point is The Imperial Swordsman, directed by a director (Lam Fook-Dei) I never heard of before, featuring actors from the Shaw stable I've seldom seen in anything I could remember, and with a beginning that does barely begin to promise what the film's second half then goes on to deliver.

If you even have the slightest interest in wuxia films, or even just in action films that are very beautiful to look at (more in motion than in screenshots, I have to say), you could do worse than to head over to my write-up of the film on WTF-Film.
