Synopsis by Jeremy Wheeler
This blood-soaked Shaw Bros. action fiesta follows Master Wu (Ko Keung), a kung-fu Master that will stop at nothing to bring justice to his brother's murder by the hands of an evil warlord and his clan. When Wu refuses to join a ruthless King's army, he is driven out in a violent battle of retaliation that ends up taking the life of his brother. With blind retribution fueling his sword, Wu carves a line through the empire until his vengeance is satisfied.
