Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn late Tang Dynasty, China, court physicians found a peculiar kind of snake that can be processed and used as medicine. Farmers hunted them in exchange for tax exemption. This is written history and the background of this movie. Although in real history the farmers were much poorer, snake hunting was their last resort to avoid famine.
- Alternate versionsThe UK release was cut, the distributor chose to remove a scene of moderate sex and two sequences of moderate violence in order to obtain a PG classification. An uncut 12 classification was available.

Featured review
1. Animation quality was uncharacteristically quite good for a Chinese animation. Backgrounds were more detailed than usual, except lower rating because they were static unmoving. Foreground central character/scenes were quite realistic in some respects such as hair & movement, except facial & other main details were 2-D flat.
2. English voicing was quite good possibly using Hong Kong educated voice actors - not sure.
3. Storyline was exceptional. An actual historic myth slightly modified to be movie appealing to most audiences (younger viewers may not like the violence). Very creative, seldom seen twists 'n' turns. China has many myths that translate well as animations and I hope this production crew continues with more such stories.
