The cast of this film is very strong. Joey Wong, Wang Yu, Chen Fayong, Siu-ho Chin, Ya-Dung Suen, Wang Xiaofeng and Oh Ma were all superstars of that era. Director Ding Shansi was born in Qingdao, Jiangsu. He has filmed in Taiwan Province Province and Hongkong, and is good at making action movies. The famous "Come and have a drink with me" was written by him.
The golden knife enforces the law, and the head does not fall. Yuan Detai, the executioner, beheaded 998 people in his life and never let his head fall to the ground. The prisoner had no pain.
It's a pity that just when he was about to reach the goal of 1000 people, he met Zhu Qi and Yu Hua in the Eight Immortals.
The first half is action martial arts. With the appearance of Zhong Kui, it becomes a ghost film. Zhong Kui's sister wanted Zhu Qi to suffer more, so Yuan Detai sent Xiao Heqin's apprentice to be put to death. As a result, the Eight Immortals turned into spectres and came back for revenge.
The most wonderful thing is the "Ghost Eight Immortals" and Yuan De's dare, and Zhong Kui has become a giant to catch ghosts.
The script of the movie is not perfect, it's all bad and fun, and it looks like a cult.
Thousands of people beheaded is a film with strong personality. Why do we like the martial arts of that era? Because in the martial arts films of that era, we can see benevolence and righteousness, see the causal cycle, and see the meaning of heaven.
The martial arts films of that era were well-founded and tenable, and there were many things of our nation.
The four pavilions on the mountain originated from Xiao, and there are also many characteristics of Xiao's martial arts in "Thousand Men Chop". Although the film's special effects are a little poor, this is the limitation of the times.
Joey Wong's costume in this movie is amazing, which is not much different from her costume in Ghost Story.
