SHAOLIN VS. LAMA in 35mm
Kung Fu Theater presents the only known 35mm print of this 1983 martial arts classic! One of the greatest old-school kung fu movies.

A Tibetan Lama (not a llama) steals a sacred Shaolin manual outlining all 72 kung fu fighting styles. At the same time, a young street fighter goes to the Shaolin Temple and meets an alcoholic kung fu master who agrees to train him. The Lama villain becomes an unstoppable master who begins to unleash his fury at Shaolin, resulting in a flurry of vicious kung fu fights. Now it's up to the young fighter to save the day with his "Buddha Finger" technique!
