Shaolin Drunkard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tian shi zhuang xie AKA Shaolin Drunkard AKA Wu Tang Master is a 1983 Kung Fu Comedy from Director Yuen Woo-ping. Written by Yuen Woo-ping and Chung Hing Chiu, and starring Cheung-Yan Yuen, Eddy Ko, and Shun-Yee Yuen
This very strange movie shows the sort of thing Yuen Woo-ping will do when he is left to his own designs and imagination. Even strange for him, this movie involves vampires, huge monster toads, and drunk monks. For some of the effects puppets were used, including a very creepy/realistic dummy version of the Drunk Monk. The fight scenes are very creative and show off Yuen Woo-ping's weird sense of style and choreography.
The easiest way to get ahold of the film is to buy the Wu-Tang Clan collection DVD. You won't be finding this in your local Blockbuster or Hollywood Video. The DVD includes some strange extra features that don't really have much to do with the film but if you like Wu-Tang you might be more interested.
