Funny, I grabbed this in a $2 VCD bin about a month-and-a-half ago, and consigned it to my "to-watch" pile, which I'm now actually finding the time to watch. Perhaps I'll have to dig for it and have a look. Although I'm sure someone like Mr. Bearserk might have it in his collection of low-budget junk as well! :lol:

Cool. Get some screen caps/credits if possible.

Unless I am completely missing something, it is not in the DB...and Andrew already has a review waiting in the wings to be posted for it...

hehe. had it been out on DVD I just might have been tempted to buy it

Although I was surprised at the good quality of your screenshots from it, vcd's to me usually means poor quality and disc swapping which I'm not really a big fan off, only vcd's I got myself is some Cynthia Khan flicks which I just had to have in my collection

VCDs are tricky. Some look quite good (like the Shaw releases) and some quite awful, but for $2 apiece, I can't complain since I really just want to see as many Hong Kong movies as I can! And when a movie is called EXFERNAL AFFAIRS, the quality of the presentation isn't really a high priority!! :lol:

Plus I use the "sharpen" tool in Photoshop... :wink:
