The legendary martial arts director wanted to do the impossible: create a kung-fu filled epic about the making of a Shaolin Temple master - a `love story of the spirit,' as he called it. The result (a.k.a. Master Killer) was Shaws' number one hit of 1978, the 24th Asian Film Festival's Best Martial Arts award winner, and is considered a trendsetting, innovative masterpiece throughtout the world. Liang's adoptive brother stars as a reluctant rebel who arduously masters one training `chamber' after another. Awards: The 24th Asian Film Festival - Best Martial Arts.
