The Five Deadly Venoms (1978): Centipede, Snake, Scorpion, Lizard and Toad.
If you haven't seen this one, you don't know what you're missing. One of the most popular martial arts films in the world, and well worth watching!

I love Five Deadly Venom's and Return Of Five Deadly Venom's. Are these the only two? I looked it up and there seem to be many films that feature some of the characters, but not all of them.
Five Deadly Venoms and Return of the Five Deadly Venoms aren’t technically a series of films. Return of the Five Deadly Venoms is actually Crippled Avengers but was renamed for American audiences to cash in on Five Deadly Venoms.
Five of the actors in these films (Lo Meng, Philip Kwok, Lu Feng, Sun Chien and Chiang Sheng) became known as the “Venom Mob” by kung fu cinema fans and went on to star in a bunch of films together; the majority of which were directed by one guy: Chang Cheh.
You’ll hear a lot of people talk about “Venoms films” when referring to movies with three or more of the Venom Mob in them. The Venoms are pretty much their own sub genre.
Some Venom films include…
Invincible Shaolin
Kid with the Golden Arm
Two Champions of Shaolin
Ten Tigers from Kwangtung
Masked Avengers
The Rebel Intruders
Shaolin Rescuers
The Magnificent Ruffians
I don’t think any of them are less than three star films. Most are four stars and, of course, some are five star classics. They’re definitely worth seeking out.

I thought I would provide some insight into how things worked behind the scenes on Venoms films when it came to action sequences. All of the following information was taken from interviews.
Kuo Chui, Chiang Sheng, and Lu Feng would typically meet with Chang Cheh on set to discuss things before shooting. Then, they would get to plan out the action sequences and shoot the move sets of three people together (as the interview put it). The three of them decided how many people were in the move set since there could be anywhere from 2 to 3 people or more in a sequence. Having more than 3 people was the hardest thing to complete since you had to have more maneuvers. Chang Cheh left it entirely up to them when it came to making decisions like that.
Before shooting sessions, they would meet to talk about the general direction of a sequence. Lu Feng gave these examples: how many people hit him; who was the last to get killed; or how his character died. He said the length of time given to the middle portion of the fights all takes a lot of time. Kuo Chui estimated that a large-scale fight could take 7 days minimum. When it came to final fight scenes, they could take up to 10 to 14 days total!
The pictures above are from a video that showed them filming behind the scenes of Masked Avengers (1981).

The Icosahedral Shaolin
In the final installment in the film series, history's greatest geometers vie for what it turns out is the most important prize- an actual squared circle. All of the mathematicians find this a really disappointing prize, and then the audience learns that the kumite has taken place entirely within a bunch of dice being used by Pascal and Fermat to play a game.

Fun fact: Kuo Chui said the scenes with the dirty water were the hardest thing he had to do while filming Marco Polo. He said being in water made it more difficult to do somersaults/flips, but he was able to get used to it eventually!
I absolutely adore this scene. I could watch it on loop.
