    Default Looking for execution scenes in the series

    Hi, everyone!

    I am currently doing a university project with the groups of collegues about the history of death penalty in the world. My part covers a history of beheading in various countries and includes depiction of this method of execution in movies. As far as I know this method was widely used in ancient China.

    So my question is: which of the series mentioned at this forum include the scenes where females are executed by beheading (I have already enough of male but lack of female examples) If a woman is about to be beheaded but saved at the very last moment this also can help.
    I will be very grateful to receive any useful information regarding this topic.

    Thanks in advance.

    Well to start with two of them. I am not exactly sure which one, but in Huan Zhu Ge Ge I or II [Princess Pearls]. There was a scene where the females were going to be executed.

    Part II, after Swallow and Ziwei were found to have helped Princess Xiang to flee the Palace.

    As for headchopping, just check out some Judge Bao series. Most of the time, the criminals get their heads chopped off.

    Looking for execution scenes in the series
    Justice Bao series has them.

    Love is Beautiful where the emperor gave orders to behead Ling Wan (played by Marianne Chan).

    I watched it but they were rescued before arriving to the execution place so there was no execution scene.

    Thank you very much for the information, I watched Love is Beautiful: the scene is good.

    As for Judge Bao, most of the executions are performed by Dragon Blade, I wathed them and I need more sword execution scenes.

    Any other ideas?

    You're welcome!

    You can also try:
    Justice Sung (part 1) - Wong Tze Wah gets executed in the final episode.
    Reicarnated II (ATV) - Luk Dan's family gets executed near the start.

    I'm not too sure if Duke of Mount Deer 1998 & 2000 has them but it's worth trying them out.

    Beheadings, boiled alive and a very inventive execution of Genghis Khan's sworn brother. Historically, he had his spine snapped across a spear shaft which was an honorable 'bloodless death'.

    The series in the second set is "Kung Fu Master" (not to be confused with ~ "Kung Fu Master From Guangdong"). The actress in those captures is Jade Leung.
