old school bagua kungfu movies?
Anyone know of any old school bagua kungfu movies? I know that "the one" was out, but i was looking for old school shaw bros type stuff with bagua. I remember i had seen a couple in which shaolin was against the wudang temple and they had some priests practing bagua and stuff but can't remember the titles. Any thoughts?
thanks. A.

These are the movies that I know have BaGua in them.
The Undaunted Wudang (features BaGua and Hsing-I) Shaw Bros. Born Invincible (features Tai Ji and BaGua) The honor of Dong Fang Xu ( Features strictly BaGua training methods and fighting) Hope this helps PEACE

I can attest to the wicked awesomeness of "The Honor of Dong Fang Xu" but have never trained any ba gua, so just have to guess at how authentic it is. There's only a small amount of silliness in it, like backward loops and stuff.
The plot's not so bad either.

I found out that I already had 2 of these in my collection. I checked out the undaunted wudang, and that one is pretty good. Girl goes to the wudang temple to learn some bagua. I didn't think the fighting was very characteristic of bagua evasiveness in my mind, but it was good to see some on the tv screen
 As for born invincible, I was actually quite disappointed. I was hoping to see some "drunken tai chi" or even some "tai chi master" kind of fighting, but it was more like iron body qigong type of taiji training. The movie wasn't so bad, but I was disappointed in the representation of taiji. I'm gonna for sure check out the honor of ... flick. Hopefully that's satisfy my bagua urge A.
