I just saw this last weekend.  Well, the last 2/3rds of it anyway.  I have to say, this was one of the better karate movies I've seen.  The fight coordination wasn't up to par with others I've watched or at least to what I remember, but it had a lot of imagination.  When I turned it on I saw this old man jump on top of a building holding a funny-looking red hat with a chain attached.  Then he threw it on this one-armed man's head, a curtain fell from it and the old man ripped the one-armed man's head off!  After that, I had to watch.  I found out where Dhalsim from the Street Fighter II video game comes from when the one-armed boxer (different guy) fought an Indian who dislocated his arms as he fought to extend his punches.  And my favorite scene was the boxer fighting the shoe-less flunky of the blind man in a metal-floored hut superheated by fire.  I just had to share this little gem.
