A truly intoxicating blend of wuxia fantasy and revenge melodrama, The Lady Hermit revels in cruelty, beauty, and moral extremity. Stripping back an otherwise familiar formula to its barest essentials, there's something to be said about the film's execution that makes the following of said formula ultimately redundant, retaining all of its heart. The action is all executed to a high standard, filled with rhythm, pose and shock. The film certainly benefits from a set of great performances; Cheng Pei-Pei is certainly unforgettable in the titular role, while Lo Lieh is always a treat; however, the show is stolen by Shih Szu. Notable for its depiction of female rage and power at a time when the genre was still largely male-dominated, The Lady Hermit is a haunting and often unsettling experience, trading heroic romanticism for bitterness and blood.

Decent Cheng Pei-Pei martial arts vehicle, made a little better with the addition of Shi Szu as the Lady Hermit's eager young student. A film with two kick-butt swordswomen in it doesn't leave much room for Lo Lieh, who has to service a typical and mostly useless male romantic role. The master/student love triangle aspect is one of the more tiresome parts of the film, actually. Some nice Shaw choreography as always, and Pei-Pei's follow up to saying, "I want your arm, your leg, and your head" alone makes this one worth watching.

Pei-Pei Cheng plays the titular hermit who is also a master swordswoman. She takes on two students to help her defeat the evil Black Demon. The action is a bit slow, but well choreographed. Not a classic, but I suppose it's worth watching. Lieh Lo also appears in the film.
