Plot summary


Tang Chia spent his career as the Shaw Brothers premier action choreographer.
Having worked under both Chang Cheh and Liu Chia Liang, he had developed into
arguably the most reliable assisstant in the studio. Surprisingly he did not
direct his first movie until the waning years of the company. He only helmed
three features, 1982's Shaolin Prince(aka Death Mask of the Ninja), 1983s
Shaolin Intruders and 1984s Opium and the Kung Fu Master.
All three are standouts with Opium... being his finest.

Opium and the Kung Fu Master tells the tale of Tie Qiao San, one of the famous
Ten Tigers of Kwantung. Here he is portrayed as the local town hero and
guardian, respected and beloved by all. However, he is holding a dark secret
he spends much of his lesiure time in an opium den, completely in denial of
his addiction. His students try to get him to stop, but to no avail. The film
cleverly starts off as light and humorous only to turn dark about mid way.
Stories of his "handicap" reach the ears of a trio of nasties. They wish to
control the opium den, get the town addicted and reap the money that will be
made from it. What has stopped them from doing so is Tie being such a supreme
fighter. But his addiction has left him severely weakened. In short order,
they defeat him and kill his main pupil. Now a little more than a crumpled
mess, Tie returns to his blind master who must first help him go cold turkey
and then literally start his training from scratch as he attempts to regain
his once invincible fighting form.
