Storyline
Plot Summary |
Shaolin monk Kwai Chang Caine is on the run after he killed the Chinese Emperor's nephew after that coward killed his teacher in cold blood with a gun. He flees to America to escape retaliation, and to search for his half-brother in order to settle down in this new land. However, in his travels in the Wild West, he cannot help but continually run into trouble from desperadoes and other ruffians as they oppress the innocent, while bounty hunters pursue the price on his head. Against this, he has his skill of Kung Fu martial arts, which proves to be devastatingly effective in this gun-dominated land.

Did You Know?
Trivia | David Carradine had no formal martial arts training of any sort. He had received some training as a dancer when he was younger. This was a particularly aggravating fact for Bruce Lee after he was turned down for the part of Caine. See more » |
Goofs | In the title sequence the view of young Caine is looped in the pebble scene, as the smoke behind him reverses twice. See more » |
