A pacifist village is beset by bandits in this martial arts thriller. "Savage Five" hands-down rivals the ornateness of "Kid With The Golden Arm" and the twist-heavy "Five Deadly Venoms". The always great David Chiang plays a lesser version of his Rover character from "Duel Of The Iron Fist", and Ti Lung, looking incredible here, is at his physical best. Accolades to Chen Kuan Tai and Wang Chung in great sympathetic roles, too. A kung fu classic where the actual martial arts display takes a back seat to the mesmerizing story.

Depois de atuar em dezenas de filmes, Teddy Yip Wing Cho resolveu dirigir alguns filmes, todos com formatos distintos. "The Black Tavern" talvez seja o seu primeiro do gênero suspense, um filme repleto de tramas, reviravoltas e contendo uma gama considerável de efeitos especiais para uma película da época. O cenário é basicamente um único local e com poucas variações de ambiente. O contexto do filme é organizado em uma trama com inúmeros personagens, todos tentando se apropriar indevidamente do tesouro alheio. Muito movimentado, com lutas praticadas com severa violência contendo diversos acessórios de mão, tais como, espadas, lanças, facas e chicotes.
