Tietoja tästä elokuvasta

Although director Chu Yuan’s collaboration with famed novelist Ku Lung is the stuff of legend, what is often missed was his titanic teaming with equally respected, equally inspired author Chin Yung – creator of this unforgettable saga. Set during the Yuan Dynasty, it tells the fascinating story of the “Sacred Fire” sect, the Wu Tang swordsmanship clan, the disciples of the Mei group, The Book of Chu Yang (which can make the reader immortal), and the destruction of Shaolin. And that’s just the start of the fascinating intrigues and ingratiating characters found here. Eminent martial arts instructor Tang Chia led a cast of screen idols, lovely starlets, and such veteran kung-fu artists as Lo Lieh on an incredible adventure that ranks as a favorite from Asia to America. And it’s just the beginning. Someone is wiping out all of Shaolin and the seven sects. Can they be stopped? Only the sequel knows for sure!

Great for movie for me not soo much for my family as I love ❤️ Kung fu flicks. I buy 1 a week. Got thousands to go but the story line with fantasy and retro fighting scenes, fake blood and exaggerated moves there's nothing like old school kung fu movies.....period.

One of my favorite of a lengthy list of favorite Shaw brother films. I hope the play store includes the sequels soon.
