Watch Shaolin vs. Evil Dead For Free

Waste of time

Did you people see the same film I saw?

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This movie ended so abruptly I rewinded the DVD, thinking it had skipped. Nope that was the end. I got a laugh out of that.This movie was not bad, ending aside. Think "Power Rangers" quality acting and marshal arts, add in zombies and better sets and you have this movie. The main character reminded me of Yul Bryner but without much in the way of acting skills, his side kicks were amusing. The "bad guy" was over the top, making him enjoyable to watch and adding needed spark to this movie effort.I have to say I was kept both entertained and amused so I can recommend this movie if you do not mind endings that are so abrupt you might think the camera just stopped working mid frame!

ill agree with most out there if you base this movies rating purely on the first installment, yes you may end up being sorely disappointed. but if you wait it out and I'm sure some of you have then your now aware that those scenes at the end of s vs e weren't test shots as others have lead you to believe but were in fact........OK before i go on ill let you know that the rest of the review is quite a spoiler so for any who want to wait and see the sequel please don't read on.......now as i was saying those "test shots" as they were poorly stated were in fact final scene shots well some anyways from the sequel shaolin vs evil dead 2: ultimate power, which BTW is out for sale in china now, not 100%sure when it will be available domestically but it is out there so please don't base your reviews on what others have said before me because they are entirely wrong the sequel was bought and paid for in 2005 why others have called these scenes in the closing credits "test shots" i know not and just to let you all know I'm not passing on info from other sites i read well about the movie itself and its quality I'm not anyways i just finished watching it so by all means keep your eyes open and look out quite a good movie after all even with all the throw backs to the vampire comedy movies of the Chinese cinema's past

But the person here who merely copied over the PR blurb as a review should have it's pointy 'lil head checked :PI wasn't expecting MR VAMPIRE 2004, and that's a good thing. This wasn't as nearly as good as it should have, even given the low budget treatment. Gordon Liu can only do so much to help this film. In comparison to any of the original Hopping Zombie films of the past, this doesn't hold a Joss stick - but if you are used to subtitled ATV or TVB series then this could be right up your alley.Also, FYI: this is PART ONE of a two part series, even though little information to this effect has been found. Thus, there have been lots of reviews that mention the 'abrupt ending' as a turnoff...understandable.

Shaolin Vs. Evil Dead is a horribly drab film about a monk who goes around putting souls at rest. There is also an ex-student of his who goes around capturing the souls into purgatory.WARNING: It's filmed like an old TV special (maybe it was straight to video) and despite what the box says, there is very little fighting in the film.Nearly everything that the DVD says in the plot synopsis only happens IN THE CREDITS of the film in a TINY screen on the top left. So you won't be seeing the five-element formation... hahaha and also it's not a gore-fest as it claims to be. In fact... I don't recall any blood. There were some worms... and some hopping vampires (sweet... that's why I gave this film higher than a 1) Avoid this film at all costs, unless you wanna get drunk and laugh at the horrendous dubbing with friends. (I watched the first hour subbed but it was so horrid that we switched to dubbed for the end... and no I wasn't under the influence of alcohol when watching it.)
