MYSTERIOUS HEROES (1977, released in the U.S. in a questionable edition as WU TANG SWORDSMAN) offers a strong cast of kung fu performers and a steady stream of well-staged action scenes that will help fans get through a convoluted plot made even more erratic by mistakes in the English dub lines.
The storyline revolves around the search for a kung fu master named Lo Tien Fung, who's been missing for 20 years, and the whereabouts of his vaunted "Green-Crested Sword." Carter Wong (18 BRONZEMEN) and his frequent co-star Polly Shang Kwan (aka Lingfeng Shangguan) play kung fu students who embark on the search for Lo and whose ties to Lo are made clear much later in the film.
We learn early on that the evil Baron Su Ching (Wang Hsieh) of Dragon Town had imprisoned Lo (Shih Kien) and kept him locked up in a secret dungeon all these years while coveting his famed sword. There is a beggar played by Cliff Lok who functions as a street performer who sings songs about the sinister goings-on in Dragon Town and gets harassed regularly by the Baron's guards. Eventually Carter and Polly acquire Cliff as an ally and learn what they need to plan the rescue of Lo and the retrieval of the sword.
There's a lot of family history gradually revealed and a new character introduced late in the film who has a great deal of influence on the protagonists. It can get puzzling at times, but at least there are plenty of large-scale fights with the Baron's army of red-suited guards and, subsequently, a band of killers called the Four Devils. Carter and Lo even fight each other a couple of times.
