"That is what I have this movie under. Now this is definitely THE most ambitious project created by any Kungfu director. Don't be fooled by the guy with the metal mask, he is freaking awesome. Also don't be fooled with the guy with the 12 cent gold outfit, because this is LU FENG, the centipede from 5 deadly venoms! You have to buy all 3 of the volumes for this. They are all about an hour and 25 min. long. Lu Feng's scenes are the only ones that are not sped up, because, well he was the centipede. The training, the comedy, the action, everything is pretty freaking sweet in this movie. I have not seen parts 2 and 3, but I have heard that vol. 2 is a little slow, but 3 gives one of the best final fights ever, and after having seen Ninja Death 1, believe it. Now this movie could have been done by Godfrey Ho, and this would be unwatchable, but we have a very capable director who has obviously read a lot of comic books. I have never heard of a series like this before, but if there is anything else similiar, I will go ahead and guarantee that it is not as good."
