The Thieves are back with another Shaw Brothers kung fu classic!  On today’s show, we are reviewing director Lau Kar-Leung’s spectacular Eight Diagram Pole Fighter.  Released at the tail end of the Shaw Brothers era, the film stars the iconic Gordon Liu, Alexander Fu, and Kara Hui as the last surviving members of the Yang family who pursue a bloody, teeth shattering, revenge against the Khitan invaders that defeated their clan in battle.
