Overview

Three years after the infamous Dragon Inn was burnt down in the desert when its innkeeper Jade vanished. A new gang of marauders had taken over - innkeepers by day and treasure hunters by night. The inn is the rumoured location of a lost city buried under the desert, and its hidden treasure would only be revealed by a gigantic storm every 60 years. The gang used the inn as a front to locate the lost treasure.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A wuxia adventure film that uses the desert, a doomed inn, and a legendary treasure as the stage for spectacular martial arts and political intrigue. It's a richly mounted action spectacle with stakes that run deeper than the plot suggests.
