This is a great alternative to the crazy "Toxic Avenger", best acted with better actors and also makes you laugh more without all that nonsense vulgarity.

Shaw Brothers are a guarantee if you want to spend an hour and a half having fun in front of a good, completely recreational audiovisual product and above all without getting bored for a second.

Very well written, well acted, great photography, the monster is a bit of a cardboard, but it creates its mystical atmosphere all the same.

Undoubtedly best of all the various Troma, Jess Franco and other pieces of junk that today are acclaimed by fans for no reason.

From the same director of the disturbing "Hex" (1980) and the gore jewel "Bewitched" (1981), an updated reinterpretation of Kung Fu classics such as "One-armed Swordsman" (1967) and "The 36th Chamber of Shaolin" (1978).

The film is about a police chief who is assigned to go in search of the thieves who have stolen two million gold bars from the capital. He will uncover a plot in which he will do justice with blood.

The film immediately takes on an almost feverish pace, thanks to the frantic editing in the style of Shaw Brothers. Excellent from a photographic point of view, especially the night scenes, they are pervaded by a dark blue that fully satisfies the viewer's view. The fights are fluid and fed with massive doses of blood. With a perfect mix of action and speech, cruelty and irony.

The only flaws are: The not very fluid panoramas and some shots to be discarded kept in assembly. In summary, a fresh and very smooth film. Beautiful, but with the blunders of those who produce films in a few months, in perfect Shaw Brothers style.
