Bio: I have been collecting Kung Fu films for over 25 years and consider myself a fanatic in the genre. I was pleased to find this site to add to my already ridiculus collection. Alot of the titles on the site I already have but on vhs, don't laugh. The titles I am unfamilar with are the ones I am purchasing and any specific favorites that I already own I will purchase on DVD. If you see my reviews on any specific titles 5 stars you may want to check them out.
YOU ARE HERE:INTERACT HOME / KUNG FU CLASSIC VIEWER'S PROFILE
The Brave Archer 2 (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure This film is a classic. As with all of the "Brave Archer" series, you'll want to view the film in DVD quality--those old worn VHS tapes do not do the film any justice. A must-have for any classic kung fu fan.
Stranger From Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Very good film, starts out kinda slow, but when the training sequence kicks in watch out. Recommended for any old school kung fu fan.
House Of Traps (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Number 3 in my all time top 10. A true classic. Recommended for any kung fu fan. Non-stop action from start to finish.
The Avenging Eagle (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Number 8 in my all time top 10. Fu Sheng, Ti Lung and Ku Feng...what more can I say? And who can forget those Golden Eagle Claws?
Shaolin Prince (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure My number 2 all time kung fu classic. Ti Lung, the student of the 3 holy fools, enough said. Not to mention the 9th prince and his iron fingers of death.
Fist Of The White Lotus (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Number 7 in my all time top 10. Lotus chief and his hidden vital nerve, not to mention him floating away when he feels the need. Another Shaw classic.
The Kid With The Golden Arm (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Classic Shaw Golden Arms Wow. Silver Spear cunning loved those darts he uses on long axe and short axe. Agent Hi Tow or Kuo Cho the wine drinker I guess he had to cheat to win he had no other option. A true classic not in my top 10 but my top 20 no doubt.
Five Shaolin Masters (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Another classic Shaw film, all-star cast, too many names to mention. The copy I have--don't laugh--on VHS is called "Death Chamber". In my all time top 20.
Judgement Of An Assassin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I was suprised at all the fast-paced killings that took place in the first 20 minutes of the film. It eventually slows down put picks back up again in spurts. Overall a really good film.
Full Moon Scimitar (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Wow, what can I say? I have never enjoyed a swordplay SB flick as much as I enjoyed this one. A true sleeper classic. The truth is I never even heard of this title, but it has a cast of Shaw heroes and villians, along with my favorite bad guy Wang Lung Wei. I would recommend this movie to any swordplay fan.
Clans Of Intrigue (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Not much to say about this film expected more not one of Ti Lung's best by far. It's worth checking out.
Tales Of A Eunuch (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A rare film a cross between "Dirty Ho" without Gordon Liu really displaying his kung fu skills and of course Jackie Chan with all of his slapstick comedy. Ku Feng of course delivered the evil princess was surprising and Wong Yu--well let's just say he stood his ground. Worth checking out.
The One Armed Boxer (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Old school classic. Wang Yu fights, gets his arm chopped, trains, and takes revenge one by one.
Invincible Pole Fighter (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Don't know if anyone knew: this was Fu Sheng's last movie; he died in a car accident while filming this one. That's why he was not in the final fight scene. Of course Gordon Liu delivered. Wang Lung Wei did the same. Could have been five stars if Fu could have finished the film. Another Shaw classic.
The Buddha Assassinator (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Hwang Jang Lee is the ultimate kicker in kung fu my opinion. When he is in his chamber practicing the Low Hand technique: WOW. The old teacher was good, but not good enough. The student--well Hwang is the villain, so you know the outcome. Forgot to mention the intro--that alone should let you know you are in for a treat. A must-have in any collection.
Dance Of The Drunk Mantis (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Hwang Jang Lee is the man and Sam Seed does his thing as usual. This movie is kind of all over the place, but since the two masters are in the film I have to give 4 stars.

You're right, I don't consider this to be an all around good movie, but some of the fights make it classic. I flipped when I first saw Hwang Jang Lee bust out into drunken mantis kung fu! Nice to see Siu Tin in a longer fight.
The Invincible Armour (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Classic. A must-have. Three old men in one movie who all have skills--well, I guess the first old man does not count, he dies too soon. Hwang Jang Lee, the eagle master, and invincible armour, it's just not fair.
Executioners From Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Second installment of Bi Mae. A true classic. Find the weak point if you can. Tiger style to go with it but in the end he gets cheated by Wong Yu. A must-have.

The only possible weak points lie with the humour and questionable costume for Yu
