This is worth a watch, and despite its director, producer, writer and half the cast suggesting otherwise, is not a Carry On.

Dave takes me to Hong Kong to see the Shaw Brothers giall it up. What it lacks in Kung Fu, it makes up for in maggot ridden corpses.

And did you know that 1920 Chinese police cars look remarkably like modern day black cabs..?
