Synopsis

Captain Lau Si Chung (Chi Kuan Chun), realizes his kung fu isn't that good when he gets beaten by a weird old man (Cheng Kei Ying). He goes off to a temple to learn from the old man. Once he becomes proficient, the old man tells him that his master was killed by a Bandit known as "The Red Dart." Lau Si Chung then seeks vengeance & a book on nerve-lock reverses that was also stolen by The Red Dart.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 12

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
