Bio: I am a kung fu movie nut. I don't know how to explain the way it feels to watch stars like Donnie Yen, Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Gordon Lui, Ti Lung, David Chiang, Moon Lee, Cynthia Khan, just kicking butt.
The Magic Blade (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Ti Lung doing his thing, with sword in hand, taking on the "evil" of the world, to solve the mystery of the magic blade.
B13: Banlieue 13 (product link) Action/Adventure / Martial Arts Fast paced action through two thirds of the movie, then it sort of stops at that level. Was expecting more from the ending.
The Avenging Quartet [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure A little disappointed with the action on display with the talent of the four leading fighter femmes involved, maybe too many.
The Lady Hermit (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Cheng Pei Pei, Lo Lieh, Shih Szu fight and love all against the Black Demon. Waves and waves of the Black Demon's foot-soldiers get sliced aside. The coolest scene is at a country cafe, with Cheng Pei Pei knocking two chopsticks into the eyes of a thug.
The Fortune Code (product link) Comedy / Action/Adventure An all-star cast from the 80's, a Japanese-run P.O.W. camp full of characters with their own agendas. Sammo Hung is the boss of the Chinese spy network and sends Alan Tam, Andy Lau and Anita Mui to the prison camp to find the man with a code so the Chinese can access money in a Swiss bank account for the war effort. For two thirds the movie runs for a slow pace before the final ending, knowing where the code is and the fight to get out of the camp from the Japanese.
Fist Fighter (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Set in WW2, Chinese fighters try to keep an American pilot from the Japanese. Robert Baker (from Bruce Lee's "Fist of Fury") plays a Nazi officer helping the Japanese.
Bruce Li: The Invincible (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure When men dressed up in gorilla suits using kung fu to fight the heroes, it is very strange.
The King Boxer [1971] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Meng Fei helps out his friend, Jimmy Manfrei, in Thailand with the local mafia. But while Meng Fei is in Thailand the Japanese (lead by Yasuaki Kurata) have moved into the area and are causing trouble with Meng Fei's school and his sister.
On his return Meng Fei defeats Kurata, but later is killed in an ambush lead by Kurata.
Jimmy arrives to surprise Meng Fei but discovers his friend is dead. The final moments it is an all in brawl as the revenge is finally completed, with carnage everywhere.

I originally saw this in my favorite grind house theatre as a child. I loved it then and I love it now!
Bolo (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure I don't know what it is but this movie puts me to sleep everytime I try to watch it. Loading up on Red Bull doesn't help either. But finally watched it in full, and wished I was asleep again. It just wasn't interesting, funny, or enough action. The half star is for having a try with Bolo in the lead.
Shaolin Red Master [DOUBLE FEATURE] (product link) Martial Arts / Action/Adventure Those evil Lama monks are on the loose and it is up to Chi Kwan Cun to stop them.
