What the Hell is Wuxia?
Wuxia [woo-zha] is the Hong Kong name for martial arts films that combine kung fu with
magic and other fantastic elements. It translates literally as “flying people” for the way that characters routinely defy gravity with mind-boggling leaps and magical flights. The director and producer Tsui Hark [choy-hok] is the man most associated with the popularity of this genre, and he is responsible for many of its classics: A Chinese Ghost Story, Swordsman II, Zu: Warriors of the Magic Mountain, and New Dragon Inn. Other good wuxia films include: The Bride with White Hair, The East is Red, Deadful Melody, The New Legend of Shaolin, and the excellent Burning Paradise. These films create a fantastical reality populated by heroic sword-fighters, seductive ghosts, foul demons, and gender-bending villains. Any of them offer one wild ride and are ripe with roleplaying possibilities.
If you’ve never seen a wuxia film, don’t despair. You’ve probably played one of the current crop of arcade fighting games; if so, you’ve got the right idea. Check out some of the movies mentioned above, if you can find Hong Kong films in your local video store. Otherwise, try John Carpenter’s Big Trouble in Little China. This was inspired by Tsui Hark’s film Zu and does a credible and fun job of translating HK action to the American screen. |
