Shaolin Raiders of Death (1979) is a movie that I recently watched on Prime. The storyline follows a general and his gang as they march on a city and plan to take it over. A martial arts master and his head disciple will face the gang and try to save the city.
This movie is codirected by Chung Ting (Golden Mask) and Chung-Kuang Wang (The Vampire Dominator) and stars Tien-Chi Cheng (The Fearless Hyena), Kai Chia (10 Brothers of Shaolin), Shan Charng (Shaolin vs Lama) and Eva Lin (The Silver Spear).
This is a fun addition to the martial arts genre. The storyline is a bit cliche but still fun to watch unfold. The training scenes are great. I also enjoyed the fight choreography and the infusion of comedy into the action sequences. The attire, props and sound effects were all good and the villains were excellent.
Overall, this is a solid addition to the martial arts genre that's worth watching once. I would score this a 7/10.
