Summary: Close but no cigar...
Upon watching this film, I couldn't help but notice a few differences between this and the well-acclaimed Come Drink With Me. For one, CDWM had more of a sense of nobility about it whereas GS seemed to be a grand showcase of senseless violence in a way only Chang Cheh can bring. Jimmy Wang Yu's purpose for his killing spree was just to see Cheng Pei Pei? Also, Cheng Pei Pei's hands were that clean either when it came to random acts of killing though there weren't many fight scenes for her. Lo Lieh barely got to crack his whip in this one. It was nice to see some familiar faces in this film - Ku Feng, Liu Chia Liang, Lau Kar Wing, Wu Ma, the Yuens, etc. The outdoor scenes were very good for its time period. Overall, I recommend it to those who may want to compare it with Come Drink With Me or whoever wants to see this follow-up to it.
