I don't know what mystagogue means, but it must not mean good. I actually thought that this movie was one of carter wong's better performances, acting wise not fighting. But the kungfu in this movie is literally all crap. I was entertained for about 5 min. total in this movie.

A good cast, so what went wrong?.......2005-04-30

I remember first seeing this movie on USA Network when I was really young. I feel the same way today as I did back then, why was this movie only average despite a good cast? First, we have Hsu Feng, a kung fu fighting femme fatale. Next, there's Carter Wong, who's film credits are too numerous to list. Finally, there's the awesome Chang Yi (just check him out in "Shaolin Invincible Sticks", "Eagle's Claw" & especially in Samo Hung's "The Victim".) Except for the rousing opening & the fairly exciting end fight, the middle is absolutely boring. I don't know if anybody else noticed this, but almost all the fights in the middle took place in the dark. This is a lame tactic usually used because 1) the DP was incompetent, 2) the film's budget wouldn't allow for more lights or 3) to cover up an actor's lack of martial skill. A so-so film recommended only to Carter Wong and/or Chang Yi completists only. Hey, they can't all be as awesome as the Venoms, right?

Good Cast Again Misused.......2000-11-14

Beware of the Bleeding Birds!.......2000-08-02

An old Shoalin student turned evil, wants to return to his old school to obtain the secrets of the final deadly style of shaolin kung fu. The only thing he doesn't know is that his old teacher, now blind has taught 2 other pupils, in hope that they can stop his fiendish plans. See the Bleeding Birds fly through the air, cutting down trees, and people, as the evil man uses his weapons to aid his war on the shaolin temple.

Good plot, good action, alright film.......2000-07-05

This film has some great Martial arts action, and a above average cast of cheracters but the movie seems to lag in some places, which gets you somewhat confused, but the action at the end i feel justifies. not a must have but a good movie for those collectors.
