Shaolin Master Killer

Chia-Liang Liu (Shaw Bros Studios)
1978

Solid Kung-Fu flick. Lots of sweet fight scenes and some especially sweet training scenes. Without the Shaw Bros the RZA, GZA, Ghostface Killah and the rest of the Wu-Tang clan would still be selling drugs in the rugged lands of Shaolin, er, Staten Island.

There's a particularly sweet monk who fights with butterfly swords and the triple stick chain weapon that the master killer makes is equally sweet.

Sweet.
