                  Directed by a comedian actor, but not so badly!

                  Hong Kong famous comedian Shih Tieh aka Dean Shek made more than 115 movies, and this is one of the five films he directed also. It's a seriosu Kung-Fu adventure about an ex-Shaolin monk expelled for some sex curiosity, so he becomes a wandering guy and gets involved with a criminal gang. He kills them all and keeps wandering. Each time he kills he say a pray to Buddha. The ex-monk is played by actor stuntman Yen Shi Kwan, later a regular in Jackie Chan's films (the evil guy in Fearless Hyena for example). The fights are well-staged by HK specialists Lau Kar Leung and Huang Pei Chia. Kar Lueng's brother Lau Kar Wing plays an henchman also. Released in HK 12/12/75.
