English Summary:

Mad Monkey Kung Fu is a 1979 Shaw Brothers kung fu film directed by Lau Kar-leung. Later, the film was released on DVD by Dragon Dynasty.

Besides directing Mad Monkey Kung Fu, Lau Kar-Leung, (also known as Liu Chia-liang) debuts as a lead character who is crippled by the villain in a devious plot that defames the martial arts master, the character later goes on to teach a young vagrant his unique monkey style kung-fu, who then avenges his shame. Mad Monkey Kung Fu is one of Lau Kar-Leung's many Martial Arts masterpieces, and is praised for its intricate plot and streamlined presentation of both story and Martial Arts.

Esteemed Monkey style Kung Fu master and opera actor, Chen (Chia-Liang Liu), is befuddled in a devious plot designed to exploit his alcoholism and tarnish his otherwise flawless credibility amongst townspeople where he and his beautiful sister Miss Chen (Kara Wai) performs. In a plot to defame Chen as a master of Kung Fu, ruin Chen and his sister's opera troupe and gain Miss Chen as a brothel worker, the villainous gangster and brothel-owner Tuan (Lo Lieh) along with his wife whom acts as the brothel Mistress, frame a drunken Chen for the rape of Tuan's wife, and inform Chen and his sister that the punishment for his "crime" is death, however Chen's sister offers herself to be Tuan's concubine and work in the brothel indefinitely in exchange for her brother's life. Getting exactly what he and his wife wanted, Tuan's agrees, though only with the addition of being able to cripple Chen's hands, knowing he will have ruined Chen's status as a master of Kung Fu in doing so.
