Black Magic (1975)
Reviewed by: mrblue on 2010-11-02
If the Shaw Brothers studio brings to mind only classic kung fu pictures, you're missing out on a great amount of their output. As Hong Kong's dominant studio for many years, the Shaw Brothers produced films in every genre, from comedy to drama to musicals, and even exploitation, as evidenced by releases like 1975's little gem Black Magic. Though it might come off as a bit tame for modern audiences weaned on Category III gore-fests, it's still a raucous and over-the-top romp that doesn't skimp on the naughty bits.
