The Crippled Masters (天殘地缺, Hanyu Pinyin: Tiān cán dì quē) is a 1979 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by Joe Law.

It is declared that Lee Ho has betrayed his master, Lin Chang Cao, the boss of the Pluahchi organization, and thus his punishment is justified.

Before he can finish him off, a mysterious Old Man appears and announces that he will start training the two men so that they can get revenge on Lin Chang Cao.

At the Old Man's secret training grounds, both Lee Ho and Tang learn kung fu that complements their disabilities.

Lee Ho and Tang kill Black and White, but let Pow escape back to report what happened to Lin Chang Cao.

After Ho proves his kung fu ability to Lin Chang Cao, he is hired to be a guard at the main headquarters.

Nick Hartel of DVD Talk called the film "equal parts exploitation, high camp, and crowd-pleasing action".

"[1] In 2015, Jim Vorel of Paste included the film on a list of the 100 best martial arts movies, and wrote that "it's a genuinely disturbing flick to watch at times, but there's some legit physical talent on display".
