I watched this movie on the advice of a friend and after a second viewing, I find that I really like it. It brings me back to the days of my youth in the early 80's when a particular TV station had a slew of these kung-Fu movies all dated 1980. But I was certain there must've been others before those 80's films and this film shows me that there are.
The story is that of a young man who is beaten up by some punks and two Chinese monks who really know Kung-Fu fight the young man's aggressors. It turns out that his father refused to pay for "protection" and so a top thug of the area decides to make things rough for the family.
Shi-Kwan Yen is the main star in this film, with many other people I've never heard of. The Kung-Fu and stunts are very fun to watch. The story is very weak, but the Kung-Fu action makes up for it.
The movie is also a period piece, so it gives you an idea of what ancient China was like. The dubbing is TERRIBLE, however it's still a great movie to watch for midnight or late night viewing.
