You’ve never seen anything like it! The Boxer’s Omen weaves black magic wizards, supernatural hellscapes, rampaging monsters, neon goo, spooky apparitions and gutbusting gore into a phantasmic tale of a man seeking vengeance against the boxer who crippled his brother.
“Shaw’s neglected master craftsman Kuei Chih-hung made an unforgettable series of films climaxing with Boxer’s Omen, which is nothing more than a 90 minute freak-out that looks like the last ten minutes of2001: A Space Odyssey if you replaced the flashing colors and swirling stars with writhing maggots and bright green pus. And then you made your actors eat it.” – New York Asian Film Festival
