I am a big big fan of Flying Gullotine films, but there aren't many of them. Here are the ones I think of of the top of my head, please let me know if you have any to add to the list :
Master Of The Flying Guillotine
Vengeful Beauty
Flying Guillotine
Flying Guillotine 2
Fatal Flying Guillotine
there's a tiny bit of guillotine action in Shaolin Death Squads
A Sword Renounced ( the chinese Zatoichi rip off aka Zatoichi vs The Flying Guillotine )
Anybody think of anything at all to add please ?
Thanks ;)

TRicky Brains with Stephen chow has a flying guillotine spoof in it. One of the better parts of the movie.

Not one of Chow's better movies, but watchable. The end trick-off is the highlight.

The recently-released "Bloody Mask" was a very early flying guillotine-type film, but it's not used much.

Anthony Wong uses one during a scene in Heroic Trio.

Does anyone know if there's a dubbed or subtitled version of Zatoichi vs Flying Guillotine around?

The $100,000 question is which Guillotine movie is the best of the bunch?

Perhaps "Flying Guillotine 2".

DEADLY SILVER SPEAR also has a flying guillotine-esque device.

Best guillotine movie is Master of the Flying Guillotine. The blind master's weapon is so cool, and compact, it's head and shoulders above the others. The master is also quite adept with his hermit like existance, having studied in the outskirts... He also had two pupils, meaning his skill level was high. The other films didn't seem to employ the proper usage of the weapon, not enough action (The Flying Guillotine), not enough story/character development (Fatal Flying Guillotines),
and plot overkill ( Flying Guillotine 2), possibly becuse Ti Lung was playing Chen Kuai Tai's character from the original, and it had a totally different flavor...

Dragon Missle could be considered a flying guillotine, of sorts (there was lots of beheading with it). I thought the weapon looked ultra-cool, but the plot was very weak.

Vengeful Beauty
I found movie boring despite quite many fights,guillotines,wang lung wei and naked breasts in 60 mins.Ending is better,bad guy is killed too quickly but doppelganger stuff is something not often seen.

I seem to remember a flying guillotine briefly being used against Carter Wong in Shaolin Invincibles, along with some kung-fu fighting gorillas, long tongued wizards, and all manner of other craziness...

Shaolin Kung Fu Mystagague has Chang Yi playing a rebel villian with a Flying Guillotine like weapon refered to in the English dub as "Bloody Birds"... Cool Weapons non the less.
:cool:
