About Shaolin Kung-Fu Mystagogue
The evil Ching government has taken over and is out to rid the land of the remaining Ming rebel patriots, including the still surviving Ming Prince.

Hearing word of the Prince's capture, Shao Chang and Fang Ping mount a rescue effort to get the Prince before his identity is found out.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1977.
