Master of the Flying Guillotine (獨臂拳王大破血滴子) is a 1976 Hong Kong wuxia film directed, written by and starring Jimmy Wang. It is a sequel to the 1972 film One-Armed Boxer, and is also known as One-Armed Boxer 2 and The One-Armed Boxer vs. the Flying Guillotine.
Wang reprises his role as Yu Tianlong, a highly-skilled one-armed Chinese martial artist. In Master of the Flying Guillotine, Yu must defend himself against various martial artists seeking to end his life–including the title character, a blind Tibetan lama who seeks revenge for two lamas killed by Yu in the first film and is a master of the deadly "flying guillotine".
Quentin Tarantino has claimed Master of the Flying Guillotine to be among his favorite films. A prequel titled Fatal Flying Guillotine was released in 1977, without Wang's involvement.
