The Jesus Fist!
The simultaneous Cantonese/Mandarin suggests that this video was encoded from the VCD, which in HK would separate the Chinese languages into the left and right channels. The preferred language would be selected by isolating one or the other. I have this movie (Legend Of The Liquid Sword) on DVD and the picture quality is so bad it might as well be VCD (a pre-DVD, movie on 2 CDs format).
I first saw this on VHS (probably a bootleg), and I think the subtitles were slightly different, with the bearded man (not actually Jesus, but a disciple) threatening to use his Jesus Fist, rather than Jesus Punches. One of my favorite scenes, ever. The movie itself? I vaguely recall it being fun, but that's about it. Also, it has a short appearance by Gordon Liu (Lau Kar Fai).
