8/10
Excellent mayhem, Hong Kong style
18 November 2018
The Seventh Curse is an effective and off the wall action/horror hybrid made in Hong Kong. This is for the most part set in Thailand where our lead Chin Sui Ho gets into trouble by trying to save a local girl from being sacrificed. They get caught and he must return to Thailand again to do battle with evil priest(played by Elvis Tsui) to rid himself of The Seventh Curse so he dosen't die. This is heavily driven by action and kung fu , which was choreographed well and looks great. Plus add some of the cheesiest looking monster f/x on celluloid, lots of nudity and gore, an early performance from Maggie Chung as a reporter and a short but memorable appearance from Chow Yun Fat who joins the party smoking a pipe and wielding a bazooka. Overall, The Seventh Curse is a very entertaining flick where all of its excesses work in its favor and for this, I am all in. Great movie!
