The "godfather of the kung-fu film," Chang Cheh helmed this sweeping, all-action adventure of undercover, traveling patriots battling corrupt Mongol chieftains and their bloodthirsty henchmen. He guides a spectacular all-star kung-fu cast so there's hardly a moment to spare. Stolen gold, hostage villagers, raging soldiers, corrupt courts, and an ammo dump fill the plot until both exceptional martial arts and explosions share the screen.
