Hand of Death (1976)

In the shadows of the sacred Shaolin Temple, Dorian Tan Tao-liang, a devoted student of martial arts, finds himself on a perilous journey of justice and vengeance. When the temple's abbot is brutally murdered by a treacherous Manchu traitor, Shih, Tan is spurred into action. With the weight of his mentor's death and the honor of the Shaolin Temple on his shoulders, he must hunt down this rogue student turned venomous foe. Tan's quest for retribution brings him to Jackie Chan, a master in spear fighting, whose personal vendetta against the traitor aligns with Tan's mission. The bond of their shared loss, Chan's brother murdered by the remorseless Shih, ignites a spark of camaraderie between them. Their alliance grows stronger with the addition of Scholar Cheng, a beacon of wisdom whose safety becomes integral to their mission. Their journey is fraught with danger, not just from the cunning and ruthless Shih, but also from his Manchu accomplices, who lurk around every bend, eager to extinguish the Shaolin legacy. Together, Tan, Chan, and Cheng must navigate this treacherous landscape, crossing tumultuous rivers and facing relentless adversaries. "Hand of Death" weaves a tale of brotherhood, honor, and revenge against the backdrop of ancient martial arts traditions. It is a pulse-pounding saga that tests the limits of our heroes as they fight to preserve the Shaolin legacy and avenge their losses. Their journey is a testament to the indomitable spirit of justice that resides in the heart of every true warrior.
