The Avenging Eagle

ActionAdventureDrama93 min

Chik Ming-sing was raised by Eagle Chief Yoh Xi-hung to kill for the Eagle Clan, and now he wants out. When the clan turns on him, a stranger named Cheuk comes to his aid; Cheuk's own family was robbed and murdered by the Eagles, giving both men reason to strike back at the same target. Ti Lung and Alexander Fu lead this 1978 Hong Kong wuxia through a chain of pursuit, ambushes, and sword fights, with the clan's practice of turning orphans into assassins hanging over every confrontation.
