The Flying Guillotine

A reasonably good martial arts movie that borrows a lot of its plot structure directly from The One-Armed Swordsman. The star of the show here is the titular guillotine: a giant yo-yo/bird cage that lands on an enemy’s head and does its work. At times it feels like a slasher movie as the guillotine effortlessly claims its victims one after another. There isn’t much fight choreography here, and overall it’s pretty silly, but I was entertained through most of it.
