Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAlong with Dragon Fist (1979), this movie was filmed in early 1978. As Wei Lo's studio went bankrupt, they shelved both movies due to cost-cutting measures and Chan was loaned out to Seasonal Films for a two-picture deal. While there, he made Snake in the Eagle's Shadow (1978) and Drunken Master (1978) with Woo-Ping Yuen. The success of these two movies at the domestic box-office prompted Lo to give belated releases to this movie and Dragon Fist (1979).
- GoofsWhen one of the ghosts tease Yi-Lang with the candle it is clear that there is a pane of glass between Yi-Lang and the candle because there is a clear reflection of that candle visible on-screen.
- Alternate versionsIn at least the Mandarin, French and English export versions, Ya Long is knocked out with a chop to the neck. In the Cantonese version, he is knocked out with poison.
- ConnectionsEdited into Fearless Hyena 2 (1983)

Featured review
Highly entertaining kung fu flick
This movie (which really should have "Spiritual Kung Fu" listed as an alternate title) may be mostly for those who specifically like kung fu movies, but if you're one of those then this is a classic. While it forebodes the comedic action of later Chan movies, it is actually much more serious, and Jackie's part may be the biggest part, but it is almost matched by several other characters, so the emphasis doesn't lie so squarely on the lead character as it usually does in Chan's movies.
If you're a kung fu movie fan, don't listen to the negative comments posted here. This is one cool movie with lots of cool weirdness, and definitely some very cool fights. At one point, Jackie, who's still considered a novice, has to fight the 18 top students, and he licks every one of them in a long and impressive fight scene. This movie is definitely worth your while.
My rating: 8 out of 10.
