I guess this wasn't available six years ago but it is now but on vcd and you owe it to yourself especially if you're a Shaw Bros fan to go to HK Flix or where ever and get it. It's the story of Chan Hung a Chinese boxer (in modern times) who sets out to avenge his brother who was badly beaten and crippled by Thai boxer Bolo Yeung. He is aided by a Buddist monk who is dead and their fates become linked as Chan will die if the monk decomposes. Chan travels from Hong Kong to Thailand to Nepal becomes a monk makes a serious error and breaks his vows then has to save himself from certain death. This movie has incredible boxing, wild special effects,crocodiles,weird one eyed monsters, and beautiful Chinese women full frontal(rare in Chinese or Shaw movies}. I think it's truly a classic and well worth seeing. It is not a typical hopping vampire or horror movie and has a spiritual story to tell along with the boxing and horror elements in the plot.
