Summary: Venoms at Their Late-Night Best!
Review: A treasure for me, as this was a Venoms film I'd never seen or even heard of before spotting it on Amazon. It's a good print, though not anamorphic as with Five Deadly Venoms and one or two of the others. The plot is predictably convoluted and lame, but apart from the Venoms (with Philip Kuo Tsui noticeably absent...?!) there are plenty of familiar faces from other Venoms efforts. The sets and costumes look to have barely been changed from Killer Army, but at the end of the day (or should I say night? There's something extremely nocturnal about these flicks), who cares as long as the combat's good, and it is. Lots of treachery, poison needles, ambushes and noble villains, all the classic elements are here. Highly recommended.

Summary: Adam Cheng + Gordon Liu = Classic.
Review: Adam Cheng and Gordon Liu play the rolls of two great friends torn apart by a sceaming lord, who wants to see them kill each other, and also learn both of their respective styles (wu tang sword, and shaolin fist). Through a thought out plan the lord get's the two friends to hate each other, and swear revenge on each other untill they finally meet in a competition to see who's style is the best. Amazing fight scenes, great story line, training scenes like no others, and a final fight scene that tops many. If you dont' have this film in your collection then what kind of collection is it? !

Summary: Excellent classic kung-fu Gordon Liu film
Review: Excellent classic kung fu film starring Gordon (Master Killer) Liu in which he also directed. Very memorable and entertaining opening sequence with shaolin monks vs. wutang warrior. Includes a shaolin training sequence in the same style as "Shaolin Master Killer." Also has a similar "exhibition" fight with his teacher (the SAME exhibition teacher as in "Master Killer"). Great fighting to be had by all! One of Gordon Liu's better films. Starts out slow, ends like a firecracker.

Summary: Gordon Liu... need I say more?
Review: Gordon Liu is definitely among the greatest martial arts stars to ever live and this film contributes to that fact. Great fight choreography, wicked training sequences and an abundance of old-school goodness make this flick a must-see for fans of 70s kung fu.

Summary: The Venoms in one of their most impressive performances
Review: The Venoms never EVER cease to stupify me with their hypnotic and god-like martial arts sequences. Chang Cheh once again takes the helm and the result is a lesson in kung fu perfection. Granted, the movie does drag in the middle but the beginning contains some of the best fight scenes ever conceived and the end... well if you're a Venoms fan already you know what to expect. The most insane display or martial ingenuity ever conceived that will blow your freakin' mind and make you nearly jump from your seat and utter profanities uncontrollably. The Venoms strike again and this is one dose of the poison clan that will leave you intoxicated with wonder and amazement.

Summary: Venoms Classic
Review: This is another Venoms classic with lots of typical Chang Cheh action. However, it doesn't have the flair of Kid With The Golden Arm and Five Deadly Venoms.
