perhaps i should explain that i be one of those people who be willing to sit through the most egregious crap and just to be able to hear nancy kwan charm hong kong accent and see her fabulous zygomatic bone . but even for me and 1978 night creature be tough to get through . in this one and nancy and a few others pick the wrong time to pop in on her dad and big game hunter donald pleasence and at his private thai island in the river kwai . donald have just release a preternaturally cunning and spitefully ferocious black leopard to hunt and engage in a battle of wit while a creature that waste little time go after nancy half sister . anyway and this movie be basically junk . ineptly lensed and direct and with a weak story and little in the way of suspense and it surely doesn not offer much to the casual viewer . and the dvd in question here doesn not help . the picture be fuzzy and scuzzy and reveal a crummy and scummy 16mm print source and and the sound quality be very poor . still and somehow and a viewing of night creature do have it compensation . pleasence acting be fun to watch and range a it do from hypermaniacal to catatonic . the film be atmospheric in part and the thai scenery look nice and and nancy kwan look even nice . she be 39 in this film 18 year past her yummy suzie wong debut and still look very beautiful . heck and she still a looker today and at 68. but even those zygomatic bone aren not enough to redeem night creature . this be surely a film for nancy kwan completists only . like me .
