Midnight Angel (Review)
Midnight Angel
aka Ng ye tin si
1990
Directed by Jonathan Chik Gei-Yee
Written by Abe Kwong Man-Wai
Masked female crimefighters used to populate Cantonese cinema like the buffalo used to inhabit the Great Plains. Then all the buffalo got shot, and all the female crimefighters stopped being popular after the Shaw Brothers helped eclipse Cantonese cinema. But in the late 1980s, Cantonese cinema came roaring back and by the early 90s, there were lots of action films being pumped out. So it only makes sense that there would suddenly be a masked female crimefighter film in the middle of the action fest, as the buffalo have come back. Sure, this analogy is a stretch, but just go with it!
Like many Hong Kong films from the 1990s, Midnight Angel has a billion titles, including Justice Women, Wu ye tian shi, Ng ye tin si, and The Legend of Heroism.
Our copy is an exciting VHS dub, complete with extra darkness and soft images. So don’t complain about the quality, because I’ll just ignore those complaints as that’s how we roll at TarsTarkas.NET.

Resistnet loves Butte Invasions
This is what got posted on Resistnet.com:
This is a common email forward, which I will copy the entire text below because Re:Re:Re:Re:Re:IMPORTANT!!!
Shotgun Preteen vs. Illegal alien Home Invaders: Butte, Montana
Two illegal aliens, Ralphel Resindez, 23, and Enrico Garza, 26,
probably believed they would easily overpower home-alone 11 year old Patricia Harrington after her father had left their two-story home.
It seems the two crooks never learned two things: they were in Montana and Patricia had been a clay shooting champion since she was nine.
Patricia was in her upstairs room when the two men broke through the front door of the house. She quickly ran to her father’s room and grabbed his 12 gauge Mossberg 500 shotgun.
Resindez was the first to get up to the second floor only to be the first to catch a near point blank blast of buckshot from the
11-year-old’s knee crouch aim. He suffered fatal wounds to his abdomen.
When Garza ran to the foot of the stairs, he took a blast to the left shoulder and staggered out into the street where he bled to death before medical help could arrive.
It was found out later that Resindez was armed with a stolen 45 caliber handgun he took from an other home invasion robbery. That victim, 50-year-old David Burien, was not so lucky. He died from stab wounds to the chest.
Ever wonder why good stuff never makes NBC, CBS, PBS, MSNBC, CNN, or ABC news? ……..an 11 year old girl, properly trained, defended her home, and herself, against two murderous, illegal immigrants…….and she wins and is still alive because of it.
Now, THAT is Gun Control !
Now, this whole thing is complete crap, and fact check sites like those darn commies at Snopes and even the non-Communist TruthOrFiction even say it is crap. So, of course, Resistnet buys it hook, line, and sinker!
FAKE!
FAKE!
Here comes the love for shooting immigrants!
Mindy at first loves it, then posts her findings on Reply #4 of the article. No one will read her finding of it being fake. As to what she is calling the Conservative answer to Snopes I have no idea (maybe TruthOrFiction?) but she never returns so I can only assume she was killed by Illegal Alien Home Invaders.
Darn socialist marxist newspapers not reporting made up stories! My dad also gave me a gun, except the gun was the evil Decepticon Megatron! I think I got the better deal
The “Reverend” “Doctor” Moron here wants to vote a fictitious 11 year old girl president. And thank goodness we have “Reverend”s calling for the murder of criminals, just like Jesus did!
Larry Holland thinks this is awesome as well. And he can’t read Post #4, either.
God bless this fictitious child and I hope she isn’t physically harmed because there couldn’t be any sort of psychological damage from a small child shooting two people!
Mel Frost – Liar! Also a cheerleader for shooting illegals
I would also shoot illegals if they came into my house, but they don’t, which is a shame.
Don Wayne is a real man who wants to shoot every Mexican he sees. Just like Jesus.
Real Americans shoot first and ask later. They also are morons who believe obviously fake stories even after they’ve been disproven for years.
USA142day becomes party pooper #2, but I give him props for not being an idiot here.
It is fake only because of the socialist newspapers! Plus we have that Texas guy who shot illegal burglars! Whooooo! Shooting Illegals!
God bless this fake child. BTW: ILLEGALS ILLEGALS ILLEGALS ILLEGALS!!!
I am sick of all three of the illegals in Iowa! Maybe Keith McPhee should take it up with the meatpacking industry that is busing in illegals to use as slave labor at their meatpacking plants! No, wait, that would make sense. Better to blame Obama.
JEFF is so dumb South Dakota will become the most Democratic state ever under his watch.
Hey, we speak English here, Greek Boy! Get out of my America!
Real of fake, I jerked off to it!
I hope John P buys a gun.
Bradley L. – Constitutional Scholar.
Paul Blart, Mall Cop is here with more dumb opinions.
Paul Blart, Mall Cop, is so moved by this story he can’t keep quiet about it, despite it being pointed out as fake THREE TIMES now.
Replace all cops with Teabaggers!
So if Resistnet continues
CWC Liveblogging!
I caught this Wired post just in time to see that there’s another “what are we doing with all these mercenaries” hearings that pretty much nobody watches. It’s on C-Span 2 right now, so I’m going to see how long I can stand it.
“Inherently governmental functions” is a kind of ambiguous category that means “things you don’t contract out.” The military official has proposed a five year time frame to assess these things that contractors are doing that they should not be. Off to a good start.
~28,000 positions with contractors overseeing the contracts of other contractors. About half of those we’re just going to wait five years on.
CACI is providing contracting oversight officials. They have a shady history.
107,000 contractors in Afghanistan right now.
One of the commissioners actually works for a contractor. Watch him debating Jeremy Scahill here and here.
I got a relevant question on SA: “how did mercenaries become legal” Answer here.
The LOGCAP contract is fundamentally insane. POGO: More Misbehavior by KBR Suspected on LOGCAP III Contract
Contractor seriously states above contract was “97-99% competitive” whatever that means.
