Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Heroes Of The Underground is a 1973 Shaw Brothers war movie starring Ling Yun, set in the First Sino-Japanese War.Ling Yun plays Ding Yi-shan (丁一山, whose name is the film's Chinese translation), a rebel leader and icon of resistance during the war between China and Japan in the 1940s. When the Japanese under leadership of Colonel Nakajima enforces control on a rural town in the city outskirts, Ding's efforts to thwart the Japanese ends up making him a wanted man. But thanks to the Japanese being in the blank of how he looks like, Ding plots a mission of retaliation.Compare The Deadly Knives, another film set in the Sino-Japanese war released a year earlier, also starring Ling Yun. | |

Good Hair, Evil Hair: The Big Bad, Nakajima, dons a Hitler-esque 'stache. In case the audience doesn't know a Japanese colonel in a Sino-Japanese era movie is supposed to be a bad guy. | |

Extreme Close-Up: Used extensively during the office standoff scenes, on Ding's eyes. The audience can easily see the veins in his eyeballs. | |

Die Laughing | |
| Heroes of the Underground / int_aed29b5c | comment |
Die Laughing: The film ends with Ding Yi-shan laughing to the skies as he deliberately detonates the dynamites in a booby-trapped cavern, killing himself and Nakajima at the same time. It's as big a Dying Moment of Awesome as it can get. | |
