LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW // DARKCOAST
A kung fu fighting lady detective travels the bad lands of ancient China bringing criminals to justice.

Los Angeles, CA - February 28, 2019 - There’s a new sheriff in this Chinese town… And she’s slaying down the law. Watch ‘LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW’ today on FlixFling: https://www.flixfling.com/movie/25949/watch-Lady-Detective-Shadow.  

Directed by Si Shubin and produced by James Nan (Five Element Killer, The Dark Soul, Vixen) and Bey Logan (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny), LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW features exceptional and explosive fight sequences from renowned Hong Kong martial arts choreographer and film director, Yuen Woo-ping.

As one of the most successful and influential figures in the world of Hong Kong action cinema, Yuen Woo-ping is best known for mastering the martial arts choreography for The Matrix (1999) and it’s following film franchise, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) and Kill Bill (2003). More recently, Yuen Woo-ping choreographed the action sequences for the Hollywood martial arts–adventure film, The Forbidden Kingdom (2008), starring Jackie Chan and Jet Li, Ip Man 3 (2015), as well as the sequel, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny (2015).

“This movie jumps right into the action without missing a beat,” wrote Late to the Game, describing LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW “like a Chinese superhero film with Detective Shadow being an amalgam of Black Widow and Sherlock Holmes with a touch of James Bond for good measure.”

Written by Hu Rong, LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW is a suspenseful mystery set against the historical and cultural backgrounds of ancient China. Highlighting a fierce and formidable female detective – Sima Feiyan (Shang Rong) – the heroine is just as capable as a man to storm a tavern and fight the fearsome. With her Watson-like sidekick, Ye Zi (Zhang Pei-yue) at her side, LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW sets out to solve the mysterious murders. Together, the two must use all her wit, wisdom and kung fu skills to find the murderers and instill justice. But soon, they discover there are far more repercussions than just another renegade killer.

“Every minute of the action is done with apparent care and skill,” wrote Late to the Game.

Action-packed yet maintaining an intriguing story line, DarkCoast has released LADY DETECTIVE SHADOW onto various digital streaming platforms (Hoopla, FlixFling, Vimeo On Demand, Amazon, Vudu, iTunes, Google Play and FANDAGO).
