URGENT NOTE: This DVD seems to have been mastered from an old VHS tape. The sound quality is very poor, and the picture is extremely blurry. Furthermore, our review copy had some silver tape covering up part of the title on the disc itself...
A nominal sequel to the equally acclaimed "Shaolin Martial Arts", this powerful tale of the Shaolin vs. Manchu conflict is one of the highlights in kung-fu film history.
Overview:
Impetuous young martial arts master Kuan takes a job at a textile factory where another disciple of the revered Shaolin discipline warns him about the rival Manchu clan, who run another nearby mill. Combat breaks out between the two warring camps, with Kuan becoming his boss' right-hand man but becoming distracted by the promise of wealth. Soon his skills are put to the test by his opponents, who practice expert boxing and the deadly "Iron-Finger Lock" which can kill a man in his tracks.
One of the all-time highlights in kung fu movie history, this action spectacle made a star of leading man Alexander Fu Sheng ("The Eight Diagram Pole Fighter," "Heroes Shed No Tears") and remains a stunning high point in modern action cinema.
