ALL HAIL WEB OF DEATH

I have a review of The Web of Death up at easternKicks HERE. It actually was posted in July but I forgot to mention it to my readers on the blog (Hopefully I will start posting links to the easternKicks reviews in the sidebar to make them easy for readers to find). I realized recently that I did not have an actual written review or post on the blog about The Web of Death. While I have done a video review and covered it on the podcast, there isn’t a wuxia inspiration entry on the blog. It is an interesting oversight because it is a film that has had such a profound impact on how I run Wandering Heroes of Ogre Gate, and it always gets a very positive response when I share it with anyone. I wrote the review for easternKicks after watching it with a friend as part of a double feature that included Come Drink with Me, the aim of which was to give him exposure to the classic era of wuxia movies. The Web of Death got a resounding response and so I decided to finally write about the movie. It is a great Chor Yuen film, released the same year as Killer Clans in 1976. Definitely worth checking out. Read the review to see my full thoughts on it.
