Prepare-se para ficar chocado com mais este filme que revela os horrores da ocupação da China pelo Japão, durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial. Como ficou claro desde a revelação das fotos de Nanking, os imperialistas nipônicos, assim como os traidores da China (os "Quislings"), usaram e abusaram de seu poder, torturando a população, ordenando a morte das crianças e estuprando todas as mulheres. Este filme, uma violenta e realista alegoria de protesto, mostra a ação de um grupo de rebeldes contra os invasores da Terra do Sol Nascente, com muita pancadaria e tortura de prisioneiros. O enredo mostra a coragem dos prisioneiros diante dos carrascos e culmina com um torneio de luta que dura mais de meia hora, colocando no ringue os mestres do chuteboxe chinês contra lutadores de judô, caratê e sumo.
