Synopsis by Tracie Cooper

Introduced by The Wu Tang Clan, 18 Fatal Strikes chronicles the martial-arts trained Tung Wei's introduction to the life of a warrior. After learning the deadly and mysterious 18 Buddha Palm technique from a monk running from the evil Shaking Eagle, leader of the Manchu army, Tung becomes determined to use his newfound skills against the ill-intentioned militants themselves. Other Wu Tang hosted kung fu productions include Shaolin Chastity Kung Fu, Enter the Invincible Hero, Fists of Legend 2, and Sleeping Fist.
