The Story of White Eyebrow Kung Fu and the Destruction of the Shaolin Temple: Now in Theaters!

Explaining the violence helps people understand what is going on and why. On television and in movies we see all types of violence, cars blowing up, shoot outs, and a whole plethora of other acts going on. But they’re all senseless and useless. We tried to stay away from that and we did."
