movie mixed scissors scenes

Dance Of Death 1980


STARRING: Angela Mao (Enter The Dragon) Shih Tien Martial Arts Direction by
Jackie Chan

ACCESS: very hard to find. i saw this movie in NYC in the early 80's and
finally got my copy of it on 7/16/01. now that's patience. also i've never
seen it on any cable network.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Angela Mao plays Fei Fei, an orphan girl disguised as a
boy. (it's impossible to believe that they can't see she's a girl. come on.
look at that face, those eyes, those lips, those--all right. i think you get
the idea).she has several classic kung fu battles, a few that are just
downright silly, (inspired no doubt by Jackie Chan), and some that can only be
described as sexy. she uses forms such as "Concubine's Dance" and "Six
Beauties Form" to defeat the males she fights. she is smiling and teasing as
she batters her hapless male opponents which makes most of this movie a
tremendous turn on.

SCISSORS SCENE: the final battle in the movie is between Angela and a killer
martial artist with long white hair. this is in such stark contrast to her
youth and beauty that at times it looks like a teen aged girl sparring with
her grandfather. she uses the "feminine forms" and he is beaten to the punch
(or kick) again and again. at one point she falls at his feet crying like a
little girl . she takes advantage of his bewilderment by doing a handstand.
her feet come up in front of his face and she peppers him with jab-like kicks
to the face. he is dazed by the blows and she locks her legs tightly around
his neck while still doing the handstand. (See Mortal Kombat for a similar
scissors) being too light to pull him to the ground she pulls herself up until
she is right in his face. after a few seconds of squeezing she playfully slaps
his head and nimbly flips off of him, crawls between his legs and out the
other side, she then mulekicks the staggering man from behind, sending him
sprawling to the ground flat on his face. she leaps hgh into the air and lands
on hs back. her playful smile is gone now as she wraps his long white queue of
hair tightly around his neck and pulls back hard, choking him. he tries to
look back at her but she lands one last chop to his neck and it is over.

POSITIVES: excellent set up, camera work, and lighting, magnificent lady. also
her teasing manner and the age difference serve to make this scene unique.

NEGATIVES: too short (as usual), and perhaps a bit too much clothing.

OVERALL RATING; ***
