The Master Strikes Back (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure There are only two or three action scenes in this movie! The movie is mostly a drama film, but a very decent one at that if you're into that sort of thing!
Demon Of The Lute (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure If you like weirdo movies like "Dreadnaught", "Taoist Drunkard" or "Miracle Fights", then you'll like this movie. I personally didn't care for it.
Ode To Gallantry (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I wouldn't recommend this one unless you're a hardcore Venoms fan. The fights were lacking (good, but lacking), and the story was mediocre.
The 36 Deadly Styles (product link) Martial Arts / Comedy Joseph Kuo is one of my favorite kung fu film directors, but this movie was a bit stupid! The Long brothers fight scene was the only thing good about this movie! And seeing two guys in western women's wigs was funny!
A movie about an artificial samurai who is on a quest to retreive 48 of his body parts from demons with the help of the obnoxious Dororo. My feelings about this movie are ambivalent. The film does have good moments like SOME of the fight scenes, and some of the story is good, like when the artifical samurai went into a town to stop cannibalistic demons, or the part when the samurai was at infancy and being simulated by the scientist. But this movie is too pop culture-esque. First, the film drags. I'm agitated with that Dororo character, yelling and acting retarded throughout the movie. It was poorly acted. The overall story was weak and dull. I love the concept of it all, but it just lags on to the point where you just want to see the action (in which I hate). The cinematography I'm ambivalent towards. Some certain things are cool, like the infant scene because I have a thing for artifical hybridizing simulations or flesh machine fusion (through malignancy or by other means). But other parts are dull. So I'm not clear as to whether this film is a must-see or not. I like it just fine. I can only guess I was devastated because I expected better.

this film sucked. i agree. i'm stalking you HE HEHEHEHEHEHE!
New Tales Of The Flying Fox (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I perfer the Venoms version of this movie. Yes this movie is either a rip-off of "Legend Of The Fox" or perhaps a three-years-later new version of this film. I'm not ever sure if it's based on a book. Well at any rate, the movie does have a ton of kung fu action. The story was just too dumb.

dur it a remake, but yes this film was sadistically inflicting to the audio-visual assimilation processor.
Heaven And Hell (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The movie is weird and the fights are good, but the movie just drags along, boring me to tears.
The Brave Archer (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The plot of this film is stupid, and the ending of this film was retarded! The fights were good, so there!
Sky High (product link) Thriller / Crime The movie has some greatness to it! It's got a pretty decent thriller/fantasy plot. The fights however were a bit goofy! There's just too much posturing and none of the actors were really that great of performers in terms of action fights!
Shaolin Vs. Ninja (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I love these exploitation Shaolin vs. Ninja movies. This one is really good though. The fights were really well choreographed and the story is enough to keep you interested.
House Of Traps (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A decent way to end the whole Venoms saga with "House Of Traps". I wished for more fights, but what was there was really good. Story is okay.
Dragon's Claws (product link) Martial Arts / Drama I loved this film because I'm a fan of Kuo's work, but the film is your typical kung fu movie. The fights were good.
Shaolin Mantis (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A decent kung fu action film. After the first fight scene at the beginning you'll have to wait 45 minutes for the next, but all the fights are long as hell. Story is okay.
The Flying Guillotine 2 (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I didn't care for this one. I liked the first "Guillotine" movie because of its cultish feel and great story. This one was just half-assed. But it does have a lot of good fight scenes.
The Weird Man (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This is the movie where Chang Cheh became senile and kooky and started making crackhead films. Although the story is dumb and confusing if not idiotic and kung fu action is unlimited and all is great.
A Slice Of Death (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A nice, decent little kung fu movie. The story wasn't inspiring, but Lo Lieh as Pai Mei rules, and the fights are nice!
Cat Vs. Rat (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Very funny in its own way! The fights are different from other kung fu films, but they were fun!
Judgement Of An Assassin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This movie has got some great and intense action. The story is okay, nothing appealing, but it's good enough.
Invincible Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Though this film does somewhat lack kung fu action (only three short fights in the beginning and in the middle and a 15-minute long one at the end), I did like this one.
Full Moon Scimitar (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Another weird yet captivating Chor Yuen film of murder, mystery and beautifully crafted sets. The settings in this film are wonderous.
The Magnificent Ruffians (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Another great Venoms film. This one tells the story of an evil man who yearns to fight martial artists to death and consume the land for prosperity, but Lo Meng ultimately refuses. The fights are great as usual.
The Fatal Flying Guillotines [3-Disc Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A ton of kung fu action, a decent story with a weird ending. I mostly liked this film because of the conception of the flying guillotines. But it's a good film overall.
The Kid With A Tattoo (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Nothing special, but the movie does have its usual killer Shaw Brothers kung fu action. The story was a little obnoxious, but okay.
Crying Freeman (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts I like this one only because I saw the cartoon version and the cartoon one was decent. I like the action and story fine, but it was a bit slow-paced and boring at times. But it's cleaver nonetheless.
The Proud Youth (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The fights were great and the story is palatable. I'll always like homoerotic eunuchs. They a funny.
Martial Arts Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Lau Kar Leung and Jet Li together are magic in heaven. The fights were awesome and the story was charming and fun.
Lion Vs. Lion (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The story was really stupid, but the fights were great. Although I do find the lion dance to be a bit boring (considering I've seen 1,000 of these films).
The Smart Cavalier (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The reason why I love this film is because of Lo Leih's character. I love the EMOTIONS FIST style kung fu a lot. Like the film "Fearless Hyena". Other than that, this film is entertaining.
The Deadly Breaking Sword (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Good movie. Plenty of fights with a decent story and a scene in the movie where Fu Sheng drops Lily Li in a well, which was demented.
Two Champions Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure 3rd last Venom film (or so I assume). This movie has a typical and uninteresting story but has a ton of kung fu action and it's all good. The only Venoms film that didn't have Kuo Choi.
Duel Of The Iron Fist (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Lots of knife fighting, lots of blood, and so on. This one has a great gangster style story with great fights.
The Martial Club (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The story is asinine, but this movie has a ton of martial arts action and all of it is good.
Shaolin Daredevils (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure The Venoms actors Kuo Chui, Chaing Sheng and Lu Feng do a great job with their acrobatic skills for this movie. Though most of the action scenes were saved until the end (except Lo Meng's fight scene and training scenes), the kung fu scenes are good. The story is not the best, but it's not bad either. Overall it's still a great Venoms film.
Erotic Ghost Story (product link) Erotica / Ghost Nam Nai Choi is among one of my all time favorite directors because of his films' originality and weirdness. "Erotic Ghost Story" is one of those. The only thing I don't like about this one is it sort of rips off "Witches Of Eastwick" (only "Erotic Ghost Story" is more softcore porn). But this movie is weird and fun.
