Viewing Notes
A more serious, better shot and better edited movie than most of Chang Cheh’s films, THE BOXER FROM SHANTUNG follows the rise and fall of the titular character as he goes from flophouse day worker to gang leader, followed by the inevitable downturn.
I liked this one a lot. Interested to watch the sequel considering how this one ends.
