Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Fugitive is a 1982 Shaw Brothers kung-fu Spaghetti Western (yes) film starring Lo Lieh, Li Ching and Ku Feng, made in the western-boom of the late 70s and early 80s.Liao Fei-Lung and Ma Tien-piao are two bank robbers, murderers and expert killing machines who grew up together in a 1930s desert town in the Chinese border. After a robbery attempt goes askew, Liao volunteers to let himself be arrested on the condition that Ma bails him out of prison later, but Ma, consumed by greed, instead decides to abandon his former best friend with the gold. When Liao eventually escapes prison, he finds out that Ma is now the leader of a ruthless bandit army who rules the entire town with an iron fist, and Liao's path to revenge is harder than he can imagine.NOT to be confused with the Tv series or the film with the same name.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Back-to-Back Badasses: Liao Fei-Lung and Ma Tien-piao fleeing after the robbery scene, where they take on numerous soldiers while back-to-back. This is way before the latter's Face–Heel Turn in the movie.

Anti-Hero: Liao Fei-lung may be the protagonist we're supposed to root for after being betrayed by his lifelong best friend and taking down his former friend's entire organization of baddies, but at the end of the film he's still a bank robber and murderer whose body count includes dozens and dozens of government soldiers only doing their jobs.
