The Web of Death
Directed by Chor Yuen
Produced by Shaw Brothers
A kinetic wuxia action film centered on martial sects and their rivalries, driven by combat choreography and factional intrigue rather than emotional depth.
Lo Lieh is the ringleader of the Snake Sect, intent on reviving a deadly faction known as the "Five Poison Web." In order to do so, he has an affair with the sexy ringleader of the Scorpion Sect, Angela Yu Chien. However, there is also the Centipede Sect to contend with, as well as other assorted martial artists, among them played by Shaw Brothers talents Yueh Hua, Ching Li, and Lily Li.
