Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Brave and the Evil is a 1971 Taiwanese Martial Arts Movie directed by and starring Jimmy Wang Yu and Polly Shang Guan.A legion of bandits led by Master Chou terrorizes the countryside. When a legion of cavaliers transporting a shipment of silver to the city are assaulted by Chou's minions, with the silver robbed and every member of the cavaliers massacred, the daughter of the cavalier leader, Hung Tien-Chiao (Polly Shang) vows revenge. Along the way she stumbles into Iron Palm Ma (Jimmy), a swordsman who had his own score to settle with the bandits.Now multiple movies deep into his career, his status as an icon of martial arts established, and taking a stab directing, one can only expect how death-heavy a movie from Jimmy "Human Thresher" / "Body-bag Filler" / "Man-shaped Murder Machine" Wang-yu can get, couldn't they?Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })NOTE: Try playing a Drinking Game with a friend, for every time Jimmy Wang-yu / Polly Shang-kwan killed a mook. A conservative estimate of 80 shots (each) before the end credits start rolling sounds about right...

Actor Allusion: In the final battle, Iron Palm managed to overpower Master Chou using a sword-lock, disabling his opponent allowing Iron Palm to go for the kill. Incidentally enough, Jimmy's breakthrough role in One-Armed Swordsman have him trying to overcome an identical sword-lock.
