"Hand of Death"

Released in 1976, director John Woo's "Hand of Death" features Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung. The stuntman turned actor Jackie was not famous in the 1970s and the film copied the style of John's teacher Cheh Chang's films. But later both of them found their own style of movie making.

Set in the Qing Dynasty, the movie is about Shaolin monks defeating the betrayer of Shaolin Temple, who is bloodthirsty.
