The New One-Armed Swordsman [3-Movie Set] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure David Cheng, Ti Lung and Ku Feng--oh, can't forget Chen Sing--in this bloody tale of revenge. David has a duel with Ku, underestimates his Triple Iron skills, and loses an arm per the agreement before the duel. Ti comes in as an hero looking for the evildoers at the fort, which include Ku and Chin Seng. He got what he was looking for--let's just say he was a whole man when he arrived. Anyway David goes to the fort for a return duel with Ku and blood spills royal. A must have. CLASSIC.

Agreed, a true classic! I really liked David Chiang's brooding character as wellas Ku Feng's evil master of the triple irons!
Marco Polo (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure If anyone is anyone has ever watched a Shaw Brothers film, then I don't even need to comment on this gem. Classic.
Two Champions Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Venom flick that's bar none. Everyone's in this except Lo Meng. But still a true classic. A must-have in any and every library.
Men From The Monastery (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Classic old school all-star cast. Shaolin Temple disciples against the Manchus. A must-have.

Agreed, no collection is complete without this gem!
Legend Of The Bat (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Yes, this is classic. Ti Lung reprises his role from "Clans Of Intrigue" in this drama with ferocious fight scenes and traps in caves, burning boats, and naked women. Yes, naked women. The villain is, what can I say, highly entertaining. A must-see and -have in any collection.
Avenging Warriors Of Shaolin (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure All the Venoms are in this non-stop kung fu classic. Ku Feng leads his men to battle Hung Si Quan and his fellow patriots in this bloody tale of brotherhood.
Masked Avengers (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Who are the villains? Who are the heroes? Classic Venoms. They all represent in every way. Masks galore. Quote of all quotes: "We do what we want here, killing or raping". Check it out. A must-have.
Legendary Weapons Of China (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Oh yeah, this is a classic. Gordon Liu plays an almost invincible monk, but he is not even the main charcter. His brothers are Liu Cha Liang an (I forgot the other brother's name), who wants to be the leader of all the sects in the martial world. A must-have in your kung fu collection.

Absolutely five stars and a must have for any martial arts fan!
Chen Kuan Tai is one of my favorite old school actors! This is an old school classic that helped start the guillotines flying in varius Shaw Brother features.
The Savage 5 (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Classic. My favorite ultimate bad guy film, all-star cast, robbing, killing, raping, pillaging, non stop action... Will the town save itself or perish? A must-have.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
What Price Honesty? (product link) Crime / Action/Adventure I was blown away by this one. This film is dramatic. It has some kung fu, but it is explaining the nature of corruption and greed in the worst way.
Jason does an excellent job in portraying what an official should do after taking an oath to uphold goodness, as he put it. Danny Lee and Sun Chen are his good friends who have the same feelings, but the cops around him are in love with the money, so all bets are off. My man Lo Lieh is a villain of course who has connections with the local officials, even though he is captued and jailed to plot his own revenge against the guys who put him there.
A must-see. [Possible spoilers ahead.] And the ending is, well, the corupt officials get what they deserve.
Ninja In The Deadly Trap (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Kuo Choi, my man Lu Feng, and forgot the acrobatic Venom's name, along with the all mighty Ti Lung, round up this incredible cast--oh, almost forgot my man that was in "Heroes From The East", the ninja plays the villain. It's a notch or three down from "Super Ninjas" as far as Chinese warriors against samurais and ninjas go, but very entertaining fights and heroic bloodshed.

a fun flick. The Heroes of the East actor you are thinking of is Yasuaki Kurata.
Six Assassins (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Absolutely entertaining. An evil warlord, or the Emperor's brother, does all types of cruel acts--killing people, taking land--and the hero he kills has some serious fighters in his clan that are not going to accept it. Our hero's kung fu is top notch, but so is the villain's. Don't want to spoil it for you, but it's a very good film. A must-have.

More story driven, than an action movie per se, but this is a top notch classic martial arts film.
Shaolin Mantis (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure David Chiang, Liu Cha Liang Gordon Liu, and a cast of Shaw stars delivered in this tale. The Emperor wants a list that needs to be retrieved. If not, David's family will be jailed and eventually killed. A famous patriot who is incognito, Liu, is the elder with his family, all experts who support his actions. Long story short, the hero is defeated, learns Mantis style, and wants revenge. A must in your library.

My favorite David Chiang solo effort! He made some greats with Ti Lung, but this film depicting how mantis style was created was quite enjoyable!
Bloody Parrot (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Wow. How can I rate this film? The fighting was top notch, the plot was kinda' confusing, but then toward the end I was in shock. The hero is trying to figure out the secret of the Bloody Parrot, with people getting poisoned. An autopsy is performed--yes an autopsy. But what kept my attention through the whole disturbing twisted film was the reason that I won't give it away. I suggest you check this one out.
