After making superstars of Jimmy Wang Yu, Ti Lung, David Chiang, Chen Kuan-tai, and others, esteemed martial arts movie master Chang Cheh decided it was time to cement the stardom of soon-to-be international favorite Alexander Fu Sheng. This film -- following the director’s Shaolin Martial Arts, Five Shaolin Masters, and Disciples Of Shaolin – was clearly Fu’s showcase. Rather than sharing the screen, as he had in the previous Shaolin trio, here he was clearly the sole hero, and took full advantage of that fact. He gives both a great dramatic and martial arts performance as an honorable carriage driver who finds love and death when he comes to the rescue of a girl being harassed by particularly venal, homicidal punks. This fight-filled thriller was made even more special by its introduction of the unusual ‘Tsai’ ‘Li’ ‘Fu’ kung-fu style – for which it had its own separate off-stage instructor (Yen Yat -liang).

Movie was good, for a shaw brothers film. I think they could off extended the ending a little bit more longer. But shaw films were know for that as well. Good movie anyway

Very hard movie to find. If anyone knows where the region 1 is being sold contact me.
