This movie has two major problems. First despite what the DVD and VHS covers say it is NOT a sequel to "Five Deadly Venoms". About the only thing it has in connection with "Five Deadly Venoms" is the main cast and director. Everything else is different and as a result anyone who is expecting a true sequel to "Five Deadly Venoms" will be sadly disappointed.
This wouldn't be that big a problem if the movie went straight into the action but here too the movie differs from "Five Deadly Venoms". Only after four of the characters are crippled are they trained and then it is not in the venom styles. That all said the fighting scenes that do happen are top notch but they and the movie would have been better served by a tighter storyline and not being called a sequel to "Five Deadly Venoms".
