Five Deadly Venoms
ActionAdventureCrimeDramaFantasyMystery102 min
A dying martial arts master sends his last student to find five former pupils, each living under a new identity and each trained in a different animal-based style of kung fu. Chiang Sheng's Yang Tieh takes up that final order, while Ku Feng is the teacher whose command sets the hunt in motion. What starts as a search for the so-called Venoms turns into a knot of murders, hidden allegiances, and suspects who keep slipping in and out of view. The fighters' styles, drawn from the five poisonous creatures of Chinese folklore, give the mystery its distinctive shape.
