Last Hero in China (Traditional Chinese ?????????; Jyutping Wong4 Fei1hong4 zi1 tit3 gai1 dau2 ng4gung1) is a 1993 Hong Kong film written and directed by Wong Jing. It was released after the original Once Upon a Time in China trilogy. It is derivative of the original Once Upon a Time in China series, and unlike other imitation films, it can be considered a spin-off or spoof to some extent. The film's action director was Yuen Woo-ping and like the first three Once Upon a Time in China films, it starred Jet Li as legendary Chinese folk hero, Wong Fei Hung. However, it differs greatly in tone from the Once Upon a Time in China series, containing stronger elements of violence and broader, more slapstick, comedy.
The film was also known by the following alternative titles
Claws of Steel
Deadly China Hero
Iron Rooster vs. Centipede
Plot
Due to economic pressures, Wong is forced to move his kung fu school and Po Chi Lam clinic. Unknowingly he re-opens next to a brothel. Wong comes into conflict with a corrupt police chief (an exponent of the Boxer Rebellion) who is aiding local monks as they kidnap young women and sell them into slavery in Southern Asia. Whilst investigating the monks' temple, Wong gets involved in a fight and is subsequently accused of an unprovoked attack on the monks. He is also poisoned, leading to temporary deafness, although the first time is on purpose by Wong to learn how the poison can be cured. In a later battle, Wong intervenes in the police chief's attempts to assassinate a foreign official.
In one infamous scene, parodying traditional lion dances, Wong is dressed as a rooster, complete with an iron beak and claws. He clucks as he battles against his enemies who are shrouded in a giant metallic centipede. This scene has its roots in the 1956 film Huang Fei-hong tie ji dou wu gong (Huang Fei-hong The Iron Rooster Versus the Centipede), which starred Kwan Tak Hing in the title role. In the final fight between Wong Fei Hung and the corrupt police chief, Wong Fei Hung uses drunken boxing after his toes are broken while attempting to execute a "No Shadow Kick" on his opponent. The Film concludes with Wong Fei Hung and his colleagues marching away victorious, but not before Wong Fei-Hung rebukes the foreign official for selling opium, thereby causing young children to go
