Overview

Leaving behind an inch of sword in the spent corpses of his opponents, Tuan Changqing is known as the Deadly Breaking Sword. After barely surviving a duel, one of his foes is treated by the diabolical Dr. Kuo, who uses his powers of mind control to transform the man into a somnambulistic killer. After Tuan Changqing teams up with Rabelaisian gambler Xiao Dao, the story proceeds as a comical kung fu buddy flick.

Viewing Notes

In honor of Ku Feng who just passed away at the age of 94 and is my top actor by number of movies seen featuring him. This is a fun, different romp than most Shaw Brothers films and also features Ti Lung.
