Blade in Hong Kong - Terry Lester (1985) - Eucliffe, Repulse Bay

Blade follows Key Tam to Eucliffe in Repulse Bay and this is where we find out who the real bad guy is. The film used the property's interior extensively including a summer room which I have seen before in China Rose therefore confirming that this was indeed a real room and not an elaborate studio set.

The film visits this location on several occasions. Blade does go back later and is caught on the roof by the bad guy's henchmen. The state of the grounds at this time indicates that the property had most likely been abandoned for quite some time. I believe the eventual demolition took place in 1988, just afew years after this film was made, so this may have been the last time a film crew went inside. This is also the scene where Nancy Kwan makes an appearance as Lily - Blade's ex-flame.
