Inspector Nayland Smith (Douglas Wilmer) is of course trying to foil Fu Manchu who now possesses a death ray that can destroy targets across the world. The first test is successful, destroying an ocean liner but can Fu Manchu be stopped before he destroys St Pauls cathedral and kills the world's elite assembled for a conference in London?
Amid much pseudo-Oriental nonsense and antics across the world we'll find out if Fu Manchu succeeds or not. The film is enjoyable though plot wise is a bit of a mess and the sexploitation angle is heavily played up having young women in revealing outfits being menaced and tortured, the latter often by Manchu's daughter Lin Tang (Tsai Chin) who was always a highlight of the Fu Manchu series along with Christopher Lee of course.
