Description

Picking up where Volume One left off, this sophomore collection of Hong Kong cinema classics draws together many of the best films from the final years of the Shaw Brothers studio, proving that while the end was nigh, these merchants of martial arts mayhem weren’t going to go out without a fight! Armed with stunning special features and ravishing new restorations, this boxset is even bigger and bolder than the last one. We begin with kung fu master Lau Kar-leung’s instant classic The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, in which his adoptive brother Gordon Liu achieved overnight stardom as the young man who unexpectedly finds spiritual enlightenment on the path to vengeance; Lau and Liu followed the original with two comically inventive sequels, Return to the 36th Chamber and Disciples of the 36th Chamber, both included here. Already established as a genius at blending dazzling action with physical comedy, Lau himself plays the lead role in the hilarious Mad Monkey Kung Fu, coupled here with Lo Mar’s underrated Five Superfighters. Next, we once again meet Chang Cheh’s basher boy band the Venom Mob in no less than four of their best-loved team-ups: Invincible Shaolin, The Kid with the Golden Arm, Magnificent Ruffians and culminating in the all-star Ten Tigers of Kwangtung, co-starring Ti Lung and Fu Sheng. After Lau brings us perhaps his best high-kicking comedy with My Young Auntie, a playful star vehicle for his real-life muse Kara Hui, we see Shaw Brothers fully embracing Eighties excess in our strangest double feature yet: Wong Jing’s breathtakingly wild shoot-‘em-up Mercenaries from Hong Kong, and Kuei Chih-hung’s spectacularly unhinged black magic meltdown The Boxer’s Omen. Last but certainly not least, Lau Kar-leung directs the last major Shaw production, Martial Arts of Shaolin, filmed in mainland China with a hot new talent named Jet Li in the lead role; it is paired in this set with The Bare-Footed Kid, a reverent remake of a Chang Cheh classic with Johnnie To (Running Out of Time) in the director’s chair and Lau back on fight choreography duties, in arguably the ultimate filmed tribute to Shaws’ everlasting cinematic legacy. LIMITED EDITION BLU-RAY COLLECTION CONTENTS High Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentations of all fourteen films, including nine new 2K restorations by Arrow Films Illustrated 60-page collectors’ book featuring new writing by David Desser, Jonathan Clements, Lovely Jon and David West, plus cast and crew listings and notes on each film by Simon Abrams New artwork by Mike Lee-Graham, Chris Malbon, Kagan McLeod, Colin Murdoch, “Kung Fu” Bob O’Brien, Lucas Peverill, Ilan Sheady, Tony Stella, Darren Wheeling and Jolyon Yates Hours of never-before-seen bonus features including several cast and crew interviews from the Frédéric Ambroisine Video Archive Two CDs of music from the De Wolfe Music library as heard in several of the films, exclusive to this collection DISC ONE – THE 36TH CHAMBER OF SHAOLIN Brand new 4K restoration by Celestial Pictures and L’Immagine Ritrovata Newly restored uncompressed Mandarin, Cantonese and English original mono audio Newly translated English subtitles, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dub Brand new feature commentary by critic Travis Crawford Brand new select-scene commentary by film critic and historian Tony Rayns Interview with star Gordon Liu, filmed in 2003 Interview with cinematographer Arthur Wong, filmed in 2006 Shaolin: Birthplace of a Hero and Elegant Trails, two archive featurettes with Gordon Liu produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003 Tiger Style: The Musical Impact of Martial Arts Cinema, a newly filmed overview of Shaw Brothers’ influence on hip hop and other music genres, featuring music historian Lovely Jon Cinema Hong Kong: Swordfighting, the second instalment in a three-part documentary produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003 and featuring interviews with Gordon Liu, Lau Kar-leung, Cheng Pei-pei, John Woo, Sammo Hung, Kara Hui, David Chiang and others Alternate opening credits from the American version titled Master Killer Hong Kong and German theatrical trailers, plus US TV spot Image gallery DISC TWO – RETURN TO THE 36TH CHAMBER / DISCIPLES OF THE 36TH CHAMBER Uncompressed Cantonese, Mandarin and English original mono audio for both films Newly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubs Interview with star Gordon Liu, filmed in 2003 Citizen Shaw, a French TV documentary from 1980 directed by Maurice Frydland, in which Sir Run Run Shaw gives an all-access tour of the Shaw Brothers backlot (including behind-the-scenes footage from Return to the 36th Chamber), remastered in high definition Hero on the Scaffolding, an archive featurette produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003 Alternate opening credits sequences for both films Hong Kong theatrical trailers for both films Image galleries for both films DISC THREE – MAD MONKEY KUNG FU / FIVE SUPERFIGHTERS Brand new 2K restorations of both films from the original negatives by Arrow Films Uncompressed Cantonese, Mandarin and English original mono for both films Newly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubs Brand new commentary for Mad Monkey Kung Fu by martial arts cinema experts Frank Djeng and Michael Worth Newly filmed appreciation of Mad Monkey Kung Fu by film critic and historian Tony Rayns Interview with actor Hsiao Hou, filmed in 2004 Shaw in the USA, a brand new featurette on how Shaw Brothers broke America featuring Grady Hendrix and Chris Poggiali, authors of These Fists Break Bricks Hong Kong and US theatrical trailers for Mad Monkey Kung Fu Hong Kong theatrical trailer and UK VHS promo for Five Superfighters Image galleries for both films DISC FOUR – INVINCIBLE SHAOLIN / THE KID WITH THE GOLDEN ARM Brand new 2K restorations of both films from the original negatives by Arrow Films Uncompressed Mandarin and English original mono audio for both films, plus Cantonese mono for Invincible Shaolin Newly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubs Interview with action director Robert Tai, filmed in 2003 Poison Clan Rocks The World, a brand new visual essay on the Venom Mob written and narrated by author Terrence J.

From the legendary Lau Kar-leung (The Spiritual Boxer; Eight Diagram Pole Fighter) comes one of his finest - and wildest - rides, following a pair of very special undertakers who transport dead bodies by magical means. But their latest trip is proving tricky; it's bad enough that a strong-willed young woman has invited herself along for the ride but, even more awkwardly, one of the corpses might not actually be dead... Pretty much inventing the kung fu horror-comedy, and a huge influence on later films like Encounter of the Spooky Kind and Mr. Vampire, The Shadow Boxing stars Gordon 'Kill Bill' Liu and features the sort of action only the great Lau could serve up. 88 Films are delighted to unleash this Hong Kong classic on blu-ray.

From acclaimed filmmaker Philip Kaufman (The Wanderers) comes this chilling ’70s adaptation of Jack Finney’s classic novel The Body Snatchers. Filmy spores fall from space over San Francisco, and the city blossoms with beautiful new flora. People take the flowers home and, as they sleep, the plants creep over them, devouring their bodies and stealing their identities—their emotions, their uniqueness, their souls. If you notice an eerie change in someone very close to you, chances are you’re next! More than just a highly effective sci-fi thriller, Invasion of the Body Snatchers treats contemporary problems of urban paranoia and loss of individuality with intelligence and sensitivity... and ends with the single most horrifying frame in movies. Featuring a brilliant screenplay by W.D. Richter (Big Trouble in Little China), gritty camerawork by Michael Chapman (Raging Bull) and awe-inspiring special effects, Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a pulse-pounding shocker with wonderful performances by Donald Sutherland (The Puppet Masters), Brooke Adams (The Dead Zone), Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan), Jeff Goldblum (The Fly) and Veronica Cartwright (Alien).

Description

After an undisputed reign at the peak of Hong Kong's film industry in the 1960s, Shaw Brothers (the studio founded by real-life brothers Run Run and Runme Shaw) found their dominance challenged by up-and-coming rivals in the early 1970s. They swiftly responded by producing hundreds of the most iconic action films ever made, revolutionizing the genre through the hard work of top-shelf talent on both sides of the camera as well as unbeatable widescreen production value, much of it shot at 'Movietown', their huge, privately-owned studio on the outskirts of Hong Kong. This inaugural collection by Arrow Video presents twelve jewels from the Shaw crown, all released within the 1970s, kicking off in 1972 with Korean director Jeong Chang-hwa's King Boxer, the film that established kung fu cinema as an international box office powerhouse when it hit Stateside cinemas under the title Five Fingers of Death. From there we see Chang Cheh (arguably Shaw's most prolific director) helm the blood-soaked brutality of The Boxer from Shantung and two self-produced films in his 'Shaolin Cycle' series, Five Shaolin Masters and its prequel Shaolin Temple, before taking a detour into Ho Meng Hua's King Kong-inspired Mighty Peking Man, one of the most unmissably insane giant monster films ever made. Chang's action choreographer Lau Kar-leung then becomes a director in his own right, propelling his adoptive brother Gordon Liu to stardom in Challenge of the Masters and Executioners from Shaolin. Not to be outdone, Chang introduces some of Shaw's most famous faces to the screen, including Alexander Fu Sheng fighting on the streets of San Francisco in Chinatown Kid and, of course, the mighty Venom Mob in The Five Venoms and Crippled Avengers. Finally, Lau and Liu successfully meld high kicks with humor in two of their masterworks, Heroes of the East and Dirty Ho, both co-starring fan favorite Hsiao Hou. From kickass kung fu killers to crazy kaiju knockoffs to culture clash comedies, this carefully curated and gorgeously presented selection of all-time Shaw Brothers classics merely represents the tip of the iceberg of the studio's rich output, making it both an ideal starting point for newcomers and a treat for hardcore fans alike.

After an undisputed reign at the peak of Hong Kong's film industry in the 1960s, Shaw Brothers (the studio founded by real-life brothers Run Run and Runme Shaw) found their dominance challenged by up-and-coming rivals in the early 1970s. They swiftly responded by producing hundreds of the most iconic action films ever made, revolutionizing the genre through the hard work of top-shelf talent on both sides of the camera as well as unbeatable widescreen production value, much of it shot at 'Movietown', their huge, privately-owned studio on the outskirts of Hong Kong. This inaugural collection by Arrow Video presents twelve jewels from the Shaw crown, all released within the 1970s, kicking off in 1972 with Korean director Jeong Chang-hwa's King Boxer, the film that established kung fu cinema as an international box office powerhouse when it hit Stateside cinemas under the title Five Fingers of Death. From there we see Chang Cheh (arguably Shaw's most prolific director) helm the blood-soaked brutality of The Boxer from Shantung and two self-produced films in his 'Shaolin Cycle' series, Five Shaolin Masters and its prequel Shaolin Temple, before taking a detour into Ho Meng Hua's King Kong-inspired Mighty Peking Man, one of the most unmissably insane giant monster films ever made. Chang's action choreographer Lau Kar-leung then becomes a director in his own right, propelling his adoptive brother Gordon Liu to stardom in Challenge of the Masters and Executioners from Shaolin. Not to be outdone, Chang introduces some of Shaw's most famous faces to the screen, including Alexander Fu Sheng fighting on the streets of San Francisco in Chinatown Kid and, of course, the mighty Venom Mob in The Five Venoms and Crippled Avengers. Finally, Lau and Liu successfully meld high kicks with humor in two of their masterworks, Heroes of the East and Dirty Ho, both co-starring fan favorite Hsiao Hou. From kickass kung fu killers to crazy kaiju knockoffs to culture clash comedies, this carefully curated and gorgeously presented selection of all-time Shaw Brothers classics merely represents the tip of the iceberg of the studio's rich output, making it both an ideal starting point for newcomers and a treat for hardcore fans alike. Special Features and Technical Specs: High Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentations of King Boxer, The Boxer from Shantung, Five Shaolin Masters, Shaolin Temple, Mighty Peking Man, Challenge of the Masters, Executioners from Shaolin, Chinatown Kid, The Five Venoms, Crippled Avengers, Heroes of the East and Dirty Ho Brand new 2K restorations by Arrow Films from the original camera negatives of King Boxer, The Boxer from Shantung, Challenge of the Masters, The Five Venoms, Crippled Avengers and Dirty Ho Brand new 2K master of the longer international cut of Chinatown Kid from original film elements Original lossless mono Mandarin, Cantonese (where applicable) and English audio Newly translated English subtitles for each film Hours of bonus features including brand new commentaries and critic appreciations on selected films, new and archive interviews with cast and crew, alternate credit sequences, trailer and image galleries for each film and more to be announced! 60-page book featuring new writing by David Desser, Simon Abrams and Terrence J.

Product Description Let your imagination take flight in an enchanting new motion picture starring the world's most beloved fairy! This year's Autumn Revelry promises to be something special. A blue harvest moon will rise, allowing the fairies to use a precious moonstone to restore the Pixie Dust Tree -- the source of all their magic. But when Tinker Bell accidentally puts all of Pixie Hollow in jeopardy, she must venture out across the sea on a secret quest to set things right. With some help from her friend Terence -- and a charming, rascally firefly named Blaze -- Tink braves an astonishing new world and discovers the greatest treasure of all. TINKER BELL AND THE LOST TREASURE is a remarkable tale about the power of true friendship that your family will want to enjoy over and over again! Review Character Descriptions Terence:Tinks best friend from the Sparrow Men, Terence is a Pixie Dust Fairy, meaning he distributes the daily ratio of Pixie Dust to all fairies in Pixie Hollow. He has a special soft spot for Tink, we know it s a crush, but he s too innocent to realize it. Blaze: Blaze is a young firefly; he s mischievous, inventive and enthusiastic. He can use his light as a flashlight, spotlight or SOS. Despite his diminutive size, he is courageous and supremely loyal to his friends. Fairy Gary:The plump, Scottish-accented head of the Pixie Dust distribution center. A stickler to detail, protocol and the rules. If a fairy has already received her share of Pixie Dust, there is no emergency great enough for him to give her more. Still, he s a good boss and treats his fellow Pixie Dust distribution fairies like family. Lyria: A pretty Story-Teller Fairy, Lyria is Pixie Hollow s equivalent of a Troubadour. Strumming on her harp, she entertains fairies by telling them stories of old, most times with an appropriate moral or lesson. She takes requests, too. Viola: A Summoning Fairy, whenever Queen Clarion needs to see a fairy, Viola is dispatched to summon them with her kazoo. Tinker Bell tends to avoid Viola because getting summoned is usually a sign of trouble. Tinker Bell: Tink is spunky, rebellious, impatient, impulsive, determined, persistent, and temperamental... yet still charming and lovable. She has a talent for tinkering, but begins to believe it s not important, and thinks she doesn t matter. When she s called on to save the day, however, she discovers how much she really matters after all. Rosetta: A Garden Fairy: Ro is a southern belle with a quick wit and a ton of charm. She s into giving beauty tips and makeovers to her friends and flowers, and always tries to look her best. Silvermist: A Water Fairy: Sil has a delightfully offbeat way of looking at everything. Often listens to rumors from her babbling brook. Usually goes with the flow... but can sometimes be wishy-washy. Iridessa: A Light Fairy: Dess is a detail-oriented perfectionist and chronic worry wart. She tries to look on the bright side of things, but often smells disaster. Always trying to keep it together. Fawn:An Animal Fairy: A rascally tomboy full of mirth and mischief. Loves to tweak Iridessa. Fawn is always ready to play, and the more rough-and-tumble the game, the better. Fairy Mary: A Tinker Fairy: Big, bold, brash and bossy. A mentor to Tink. Fairy Mary has grown to respect and admire Tink s tinker talent... to the point where she recommends Tink for the most prestigious assignment of creating the Autumn Scepter. Fairy Mary lives by the motto: Tinker fairies never fail. If Tink messes up, it will reflect badly on Fairy Mary. Clank and Bobble: Tinker Fairies: Boy tinkers and best pals who love their jobs. Clank is a big lug who always has his ears plugged with fluff (for banging on stuff), so he s always shouting. Bobble is a little guy with dewdrop goggles (for detail work) whose myopia often gets him in others personal space, he s a close talker . They re good-natured geeks who are always talking shop. Vidia: A Fast Flying Fairy: Vidia is a classic loner; she is one of the most special of special talent fairies and makes sure everyone knows it. Works with all the talents, creating breezes to blow down leaves in the fall and spread pollen in the spring. She and Tink started off on the wrong foot. Vidia is the first to criticize Tink and expect the worst... but she is capable of acknowledging when Tink succeeds. Queen Clarion: An etethereal being, she is practically Mother Nature, and is like a Mother to all the fairies. Kind and loving, but also serious and firm when necessary. --Walt Disney Studios Home Entertianment Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure Trivia Q: What do fairies call the celebration at the end of the fall season?

Description

Product Description Spirits lurk everywhere in Ann (Boat People) Hui's horror-comedy, Visible Secret. Instantly infatuated by enigmatic amnesiac June (Shu Qi, Millennium Mambo) who has the ability to see spirits, Peter is swept into a world where he has one foot in the past, one in the present, and somehow has to figure out which is which. Beautifully shot by legendary cinematographer Arthur Wong (The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, Iron Monkey), Visible Secret is a slick and sexy horror-comedy that reflects the region's contemporary millennium-era moment in its vivid depiction of young people stranded in history, trying to get a handle on both the world around them and each other as they navigate life, love, identity and family.

Ann Hui's typically assured direction is strong on humour, water imagery and Alfred Hitchcock references. --Daniel O'Brien, Spooky Encounters: A Gwailo’s Guide to Hong Kong Horror A breathtakingly shot film, filled to the brim with striking imagery. --Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, Vulture A polished, mature genre-bending horror from Ann Hui. The film doesn't go for cheap thrills, and instead focuses on the characters' obsessions and fantasies... Hui comes back to what made her so influential. --Ross Chen, LoveHKFilm.com Top Similar From the Brand Reviews Visible Secret
