SYNOPSIS
Anthropologist Wong Lee (Bruce Li) and his friend Cheng Sing (Larry Lee) are fascinated by a place in New Guinea known as the Snake Worship Island. The island is ruled by the Devil Sect, specialists in the Snake style kung fu and evil magic. Rumours of a scarred and valuable snake pearl also attract other explorers wanting to steal it for themselves.

The previous chief of the snake people was a good man but following his death, the Devil Sect's great Wizard (Chen sing) took over and left his daughter, Princess Wan Kar Wei, powerless against the new Chief's evil tricks.

Once on the the island, Wong and Cheng hire two guides to lead them but are soon attacked by men from the Devil Sect. During the fight, Wong Lee goes missing and Chen is forced to leave the island without him.

One year later, Lee's family receive news that he has been found and is returning home. However, when he does arrive, Wong acts really strange towards his family and girlfriend.

Wong confides in Cheng Sing of what happened to him when they were separated on the island. He reveals that he fought with the great Wizard and was poisoned by his deadly attack. On the brink of death, he was saved by the Princess and nursed back to health. Grateful for all her help, Wong and the Princess grew closer and fell in love. When the wizard heard the news, the Princess is left with no choice but to beg him not to kill Wong. Forced from the island, Wong promised the Princess that he would return for her.

With his skills no match for the great wizard, Wong must find a way to defeat his deadly snake Kung Fu before he can return to the Snake Worship Island and save the Princess.
