Shaolin Long Arm

5.0 1974 85 min Dir: Artis Chow

In the tradition of Bruce Lee's THE CHINESE CONNECTION and FISTS OF FURY comes this scenic, blood-flecked clash of cultures. Like Bruce, the hero has even given his ma a promise not to fight! But that vow is forgotten when a quaint coastal Taiwanese town is terrorized by Japanese sadist and their insidious collaborators. Then our temple-trained champion uses his Shaolin long-armed style to break bones and take names...not necessarily in that order. Many a samurai sword swinging killer with Hitler mustaches are dispatched under his fingers and feet of fury but when he must face a tiger clawing traitor for the soul of the village and heart of the girl he loves all bets are off.
