Starring: Tan Tao-liang, Lo Lieh, Wang Hsieh. Directed by: Wu Ma
For those of you wanting to see some awesome kick action, this is the movie for you! "Shaolin Deadly Kicks" stars none other than "Flash Legs" Tan Tao-liang himself and is directed by HK actor/director Wu Ma!
In this movie, a group of eight robbers known as the "Eight Dragons" steal a map to a secret treasure location and squabble among themselves about when to go after the treasure. The leader of the gang splits the map up into eight pieces among the members and they agree to meet in another three year's time to collect the treasure.
Three years later, the time has come for them to meet again and get the treasure...and Constable Hsiao Hung-yi (Tan) is hot on their trail. He goes after each member individually and collects the map pieces himself. And of course, he unleashes some deadly foot and leg power on the bad guys!
This is a pretty good kung-fu movie to watch if you are a fan of Tan Tao-liang. Or just want to see some awesome foot action in your kung fu. Or just looking for an excellent kung fu movie to watch period!
