Guo Jing is tricked into believing that Huang Rong’s father, Huang Yaoshi, is responsible for the murders and he attempts to avenge his teachers by fighting Huang Yaoshi. The intelligent Huang Rong eventually uncovers the truth and reveals that the murders are actually part of a plot masterminded by Ouyang Feng and Yang Kang.

Viewing Notes

Our second film at our last movie night of the year was one selected by Ron (I specifically brought this movie thinking he’d probably want to see it). None of us had seen the previous films leading up to this installment but it didn’t matter much. Typically convoluted it still has some classic Shaw Brothers moments. Entertaining watch with a group as we had a lot of fun with this movie and the six weirdos.
