Joining Shaw Brothers in 1977, Kara Hui quickly became one of the studio's great kung fu heroines. Amongst the studio's list of swordswomen, Hui is particularly memorable because of her strong facial features and tough image, all the more remarkable since Hui does not hail from a martial arts background. She left a deep impression with her performances in films like Dirty Ho, Clan of the White Lotus, and My Young Auntie, which won Hui the Best Actress statuette at the inaugural 1st Hong Kong Film Awards.

Written and directed by Lo Chi (Thunderbolt), 1979 period action comedy The Tigress of Shaolin is Hui's first starring film, with the budding actress showing her speed and agility alongside martial artists Lau Ka Yung and Lin Hui Huang. The classic story of good versus evil is sprinkled with many strange kung fu moves and humorous set pieces, making for a lighthearted, action-packed viewing. The Tigress of Shaolin pulled in respectable box office at the time, and helped establish Kara Hui's fighting image.

Director: Lo Chi

鐵橋三(劉家勇飾)發覺林縣官與鎮南醫局主持孟平(湯錦棠飾)勾結販毒，被追殺，幸得漁家女采嬌(惠英紅飾)所救。采嬌乾爹醉公公(黃蝦飾)介紹鐵到歐陽洪的雜貨店送貨，因而認識酒樓伙計老鼠仔(岑潛波飾)。林與孟查知鐵下落，欲加害鐵，反而使歐陽洪無辜被害。鐵逃入海幢寺，得玄光大師傳授五郎八卦棍，遂與老鼠仔往找孟平報仇……

Hui Ying-hung, legendary director Chang Cheh’s discovery, and the protg of equally legendary director Liu Chia-liang co-stars with Liu’s nephew, Liu Chia-yung in this fast-paced, action packed comedy of kung-fu characters. Liu Chia-yung is saved from drug smugglers by Hui Ying-hung, whose godfather is a “drunken master” and whose leprous godmother is mistress of the fairly off-putting Leprosy Boxing style. Action choreographers Huang Hsia and Chen Ti-ke also appear in this amusing, entertaining winner where flesh really gets into the fighting.
