Avenging Eagle (English version)
Martial Arts Mayhem
•
1h 33m
1978 • Hong Kong • Directed by Sun Chung
Avid wuxia and kung fu films fans have a special place in their hearts for this outstanding martial arts drama about the Thirteen Eagles Assassination Sect of the infamous Iron Boat Clan. Ku Feng is excellent as the poisonously patriarchal leader of the killers, but conflicted “son” Ti Lung and vengeful victim Alexander Fu Sheng command the screen as consummate warriors united in tragedy. Everything is exceptional in this endlessly entertaining production. This is the English version.
