STORY OVERVIEW
When the ruthless White-Haired General and his feared Five Hands Gang begin terrorizing a peaceful town, a young martial artist uncovers their plans and turns to his uncle, Lee San Pai, the respected master of the deadly Seven Steps fighting style. Together they prepare for an impossible battle against an enemy determined to crush anyone who stands in the gang's way.
As the attacks grow more violent, every lesson and every sacrifice is put to the test. Outnumbered and surrounded by dangerous opponents, the defenders rely on courage, discipline, and the unique techniques of Seven Steps Kung Fu to protect innocent lives and bring the gang's reign of terror to an end.
MARTIAL ARTS HIGHLIGHTS
Seven Steps Of Kung Fu stands apart by showcasing the rarely seen Seven Steps fighting system rather than the more familiar Shaolin styles.

WHY COLLECTORS PICK IT
Collectors appreciate Seven Steps Of Kung Fu for its distinctive martial arts style, entertaining cast, and nonstop action. Ricky Cheng and Chen Shan deliver energetic performances, while Lung Fei brings his trademark intensity to one of the era's most memorable independent Taiwanese kung fu productions.
