Definitely one of the better Shaw bros. flick. Although there are lots of Shaws that I haven't seen yet. Good story line that has monks murdering and robbing people, only to find out that theres bigger scheme in the end. With lots of action, from hand to hand, swords, burning arrows, and devil blades. Thats right, the same as Fu Sheng from Avenging eagle. Except in here, a girl uses them. Her skills are very limited, but this director uses perfect angles and wire works to hide the flaws. Showcases Jason Pai Piao and Derek yee as good as anywhere. Pai Piao became one of my favorite characters from this movie alone. He plays much better roles as a swordsman, but displays some patented moves here. Overall, this one is one of my faves.
