SNAKE SHADOW LAMA FIST (the title literally sounds like they put four random kung fu-associated words together in a random order) is a workable, watchable Taiwanese kung fu film featuring at least three actors recognisable from their roles in Shaw Brothers cinema. The hero of the piece is the always fresh-faced Chi Kuan-Chun, playing the usual man of violence whose family is massacred at the outset, leading him on a path of revenge. His target is none other than Chiang Tao, one of the most popular villains of the era; a man noted for his toothy smile and prominent cheekbones. The narrative is a concoction of efficient fight scenes, plotting, some romance, and the requisite training, all taking place alongside the STAR WARS theme.
