5 pattern Dragon Claws

A monastery holds four books containing the secrets of its powerful martial arts techniques. Everybody wants to get their hands on them, including a band of local evil types. The abbot is killed, and the head students begin to argue over who should keep the books safe.

Starts out slow, the first 20 minutes are sort of dull, however this competent Kung fu drama progressively gets better. It's quite serious toned touching upon the theme of revenge and honour. It's a familiar tale of a bad guy - Hwang Jang Lee - taking over a Kung fu school and the hero -Dragon Lee - gets trained by an expert Kung fu monk before taking on the bad guy, but it's quite watchable and has some fine display of fighting and sword play.
