Deux enfants destinés à être élevés ensemble sont séparés à la naissance après l’assassinat de leur père respectif par les troupes d’un tyran local. L’un deux est capturé avec sa mère et envoyé dans le château du potentat tandis que l’autre est recueilli par une bande de sept chevaliers. Les enfants recevront une éducation martiale dispensée par deux maîtres différents. Ceux-ci se proposent de les faire combattre dix huit ans plus tard afin de comparer la valeur de leur élève. Les années passent. Le premier des enfants, Kuo Tsing, s’avère peu doué pour les arts martiaux mais parvient à tuer accidentellement un des chefs d’un clan pratiquant le kung-fu du squelette. Il s’attire alors les foudres d’une de ses guerrières. Le second enfant a été élevé dans l’ignorance de son passé. Il vit avec sa mère, devenue princesse, auprès du tyran qui a tué son père et pratique des arts martiaux maléfiques. Tous les protagonistes vont bientôt à nouveau être confrontés les uns aux autres.

With her elegant classic persona, Li Li-hua was the ideal performer for period aristocratic and imperial roles. The Goddess Of Mercy is a good example of her strong empathy and noble presence. The youngest daughter of a brutal king, the princess openly disapproves of the floggings and cruel treatment her royal family heaps on the peasants. As a result, the heartless king turns on his own daughter forcing her into exile. This humanistic tale will inspire and hearten even the most cynical viewer.

Chen is a dedicated social worker who has allowed her job to dominate her personal life. Inadvertently, she neglects her devoted husband Lo-Wei and their young son. Although he dislikes his wife's patients ("they're just street trash"), Lo-Wei is tolerant of his wife's workaholic situation and he takes the opportunity to develop a strong unity with his son, Chia-Pu. Then, Lo-Wei's sister offers to babysit the child while the parents respond to an emergency case. While they're gone, one of Chen's "delinquents" breaks into the house and rapes the sister. During the assault, baby Chia-Pu climbs out of the window and falls to his death. Lo-Wei is over-the-edge with grief. His brain snaps. He withdraws into himself, except at night when he stalks the "street trash," gruesomly killing them...

An evil Caucasian jewel smuggler named Robertson (Conwyn Sperry) enlists a small army to steal a map leading to a rare Chinese treasure hidden in Thailand; however, a grandfather and his daughter (Chin Siu Ho, Sharon Louise Kwok) evade the villain's forces while passing through what looks like a paid advertisement for the country's scenic and cultural wonders. The movie's nearly dense as granite with fight and chase scenes, a few of them quite witty, as well as near deadly encounters with drag queens, alligators, river torrents, kung fu elephants, and hot flying vegetables
