            Nutterly butterly

            How much credit should you give to a guy who is only responsible for about fifteen percent of the footage you actually see in a film? Who knows, but I'm giving this Godfrey Ho film an eight anyway. I'm not even sure if he's actually seen any of it himself.

            This one (or two, if you know what I mean), involves a lady who turns into a snake demon every time a blind guy plays a flute which is triggered by a witch demon playing the bongos. In snake form this lady goes out and murders folks in graphic ways. The police are baffled. And crap, but she manages to hook up with one of them anyway (the one that's practically stalked by one of his colleagues).

            In the film that Godfrey Ho actually bothered doing himself, Richard Harrison is baffled as various people wearing the same t-shirt constantly attack him in order to get a sacred ring off of him. The first person to try this is an actress who puts the moves on Richard while they are both watching a film of the actress being painted (just like Majestic Thunderbolt!).

            This one is really high on the insane visuals, what with a guy playing pool while firing the balls straight at the crotch of his prisoner, then there's the lunatic with the dead pig hiding up in a tree, or two cobras descending from a ceiling to bite a guy in the eyes at the same time. Utter madness.

            This is a great Godfrey Ho film and well worth your time - Perhaps not so funny as usual (what with most of the film being stolen wholesale and just played out, although we do get the hilarious cockney accents), it's still highly entertaining and never boring for a minute.

            It's on YOUTUBE.

            Wow, Wow, Now That Was Bizarre.

            I don't know who the Director of the Donor movie was, however, he/she was light years more talented then the director who received the credit Godfrey Ho. In an effort to not give away too much suffice it to say that the leading man Inspector Lee played by (Homer Cheung) I think - is involved in a love triangle with his fellow Lady Detective and also Journalist Helen. Now one of these lady's turns out to be a real snake. So much bizarre stuff happens during this film including cut inns of the Ho Directed part with Richard Harrison having an almost too graphic sex scene with a stripper. There are too many snakes, a funny maniac named Hagow, a Monk, a Witch and a blind guy who blows a futile flute just to name a few. Scorpion Thunderbolt is not a feel good flick and it left me a little uneasy, but I still highly recommend it.

            Cut-and-paste epic

            By far the best of Godfrey Ho's cut-and-paste movies, SCORPION THUNDERBOLT features tawdry kung fu combat, soft core sex, blood 'n' gore, and a goofy rubber snake-beast! The spliced together elements don't make much sense, but there's something about this weird mishmash of a movie that makes it bizarrely enjoyable!

            More Godfrey Ho craziness.

            Scorpion Thunderbolt is my 20th Godfrey Ho film to date, which means that, to my shame, I have now watched more films by Ho than I have Hitchcock. Ho is the yin to Hitchcock's yang, his films lacking in artistic merit, devoid of technical ability and free from the bounds of logic. Scorpion Thunderbolt is a prime example - a confusing mash-up of martial arts, monsters and magic that pays no heed to the established rules of cinema.

            By re-editing scenes from 1983 Taiwanese horror Grudge of the Sleepwalking Woman, and inserting new footage featuring his go-to star Richard Harrison, Ho has created yet another wild and totally incomprehensible mess of random imagery that rarely makes sense. It's hard going at times, with scenes jumping awkwardly from the old footage to the new, terrible acting and dreadful effects, but occasionally the film entertains through its ineptitude and sheer bizarreness.

            The plot, if one can call it that, concerns a pretty journalist called Helen Yu who transforms into a snake demon to kill women, her murderous impulses urged on by a semi-naked witch with golden talons and a blind man with a flute. Meanwhile, martial arts expert Harrison beats up and kills various baddies in his quest to destroy the witch using his magic ring, a golden sword and a mystical mirror.

            Along the way, we witness a mental patient in a tree slinging animal guts at his carers, a hitch-hiker flashes her tits at Richard Harrison (before showing him her porn movie), Helen and her cop boyfriend Jackie run in slow motion along a beach, a man shoots snooker balls between a woman's legs, snakes attack Helen and Jackie while they are driving (animals were probably harmed during the filming of this scene), the witch does some expressive dance, and Helen transforms into a flying rubber snake-person.

            You won't see any of that in a Hitchcock movie!

            REALLY THE WORST FILM EVER...NO, REALLY...

            Trust me. I've been in enough sleazy video stores, pored over myriad Z-grade shlockers to be able to qualify this as the most inept waste of celluloid I have ever seen. And yet it achieves greatness in a way only the most bereft of talent can, a deliriously incompetent mishmash of bungling Kung-Fu action, tomato-ketchup horror and side-splitting soft porn. Only the most insane need apply.
