Ghya-chang-fou literally means 'suddenly beheading' in Bengali. it features thirteen unnamed people gathering in a mansion filled with archaic objects to celebrate what appears to be a communist revolution. Nothing seems real, roads open up to improbable places, places lead to impossible elevators, elevators lift people to unconvincing roads. Bacchanalian spirit steadily overtakes the initial deadpan seriousness. The encore of celebration sounds delusionary as the drunken conversation about communism, about its methods and means, about it intricate turns through history degenerates to bourgeois nonsense and decadence leading to absurd rifts, comic conflicts, unleashed orgies and debauchery.

In ancient times The Immortals built the magic tower and sealed Demon World with the "Dustless Sword". Hundreds of years later, Wuchenjian disappeared bizarrely. The guardian Saint of Swords is unwilling to sacrifice his own cultivation, so he siphons off the soul of his newborn son, Forget-Sheng, to seal the demon realm. Twenty-four years later, Forget-Sheng (Xie Miao) and Yi (Jing Pei), his best female friend from childhood, meet Feng Ruoliu (Nao Yao), a swordswoman from Shu Mountain, and the three of them embark on a treacherous journey to rid the village of evil. The tangled relationship with the kind-hearted villagers of the evil village makes Sheng forget that there is a difference between good and evil.
The German legend of a scholar's unholy pact with the Devil would have been very familiar to most moviegoers (at least European ones), so Georges Méliès' early cinematic treatment likely got away with simply offering a fancifully illustrated late episode without the earlier narrative context (however, spoken narration provides some of the latter in this restored print). Tempted by Mephistopheles with all kinds of dancing and ethereal babes, Faust is at first excited and then terrified by the sight of various demons and monsters. The painted-set designers really went hog wild on this one, depicting the (sometimes sexy) torments of subterranean Hell with in bold terms (even when ballerinas prance in the foreground). (Dennis Harvey, Fandor)
