88 Films: The Vengeful Beauty Blu-ray Detailed

British label 88 Films has detailed its upcoming Blu-ray of Meng Hua Ho's period action film The Vengeful Beauty (1978). The release will be available for purchase on August 13.

Synopsis: Meng Hua Ho, the man behind FLYING GUILLOTINE, returned to his hit property with this essential action movie epic in which a beautiful, two-month pregnant female avenger goes into battle against a Qing-era Monarch and his team of deadly decapitators! With many a lost limb, and head, not to mention blood spillage galore, along with a torrid and tightly-woven story of a woman ready to cut and cripple all who stand in her way, 1978's THE VENGEFUL BEAUTY might just be the finest chopsocky classic ever unleashed! Packed with wire-fu and swordplay carnage, THE VENGEFUL BEAUTY undoubtedly inspired the later blockbuster CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON (2000) and, as such, should be seen by any and all martial arts enthusiasts!
