Eunuchs possessed a great deal of influence in ancient China, and the power-hungry Wang is no exception. Amid the Three Palaces and Six Houses, Wang tries to gain ruling power, but a series of warriors try to stop him--some hold damaging information against him, and some serve as mere decoys, but all are targets of Wang's evil Bureau of Information.

spinning bird SNIP

Adam Curtis from leeds, 1st February, 2006

Quality old school kung-fu movie here with some impressive choreography and a shocking opener - how to make a eunuch, kung-fu style. This movie doesn't have the best dubbing or edit (no subtitle options) but hey, that's what makes these old kung-fu movies so great. The fighting isn't at modern jackie chan/jet li standards but if you are a fan of old school and/or like a laugh at some bad dubbing then try this out.

Old Skool Castrations.

Ian Davies from Merthyr Tydfil, SouthWales, 24th January, 2007

Old skool kung fu with Wang Toa, Meng Fei and Lo Leih. Entertaining, with plenty of action throughout, but nothing special on offer. Beware if you are a sensative male. The eye watering leg crossing opening sequence shows how the Eunuchs are castrated.
