Sordid but fun Kung Fu-type story with an unusual twist. A legendary 30-inch-tall statue has seven gold needles inserted in it. Place these seven needles in precisely the same position in an adult male, and he will become a sexual dynamo; misplace them, and it's all over. Naturally,
everyone is after the little darling--including Baker, Ashley, and Meredith (who deserved better roles than this). The direction holds to a nice pace, and the story and sharp editing keeps things moving. Shot on location in Hong Kong.
