Veteran kung fu master Sang Kuan-chun (Jack Lung) is about to retire when his legacy is questioned. He challenges all seven grandmasters to prove he is leaving the martial arts world at the top of his game. A clumsy young oaf (Li Yi-min) follows him, begging to be taken as his final student, so he can learn enough to avenge his father’s murder. Fights ensue every ten minutes, peppering a paper-thin plot made from comic book logic, until the dramatic, satisfying finale. Everyone chews the scenery (and the spaghetti western tropes) in this tasty and seminal chopsocky that proved a grindhouse sensation.
