Blood Brothers
Made at the peak of the martial arts film craze, "Blood Brothers" stands out against the run-of-the-mill kung-fu flicks that flooded the market in the 1970s. It would be hard to find more legendary names in front of and behind the camera: director Chang Cheh, who virtually reinvented the genre; the brilliant martial arts choreography by Liu Chia-liang, before he himself embarked on a directorial career; and the number one buddy team in kung-fu, Ti Lung and David Chiang, joined by Shaw Brothers newest superstar, Chen Kuan-tai. Set in the waning years of the Ching Dynasty, Blood Brothers tells of one of the most sensational scandals in Chinese history, the assassination of a provincial governor (Ti Lung) by his lieutenant and sworn brother (David Chiang). Ti Lung, in a complex role that allowed him to flex his thespian muscles, was honored with Golden Horse Award of Outstanding Performance.

Etter at Dragon har blitt bedratt av sin egen bror Tiger, står de to som representanter for rivaliserende skoler i den årlige løvedanskonkurransen. Til tross for at Tiger vinner, blir han tvunget i eksil av vanæren over å ha forrådt sin egne. Dragon bestemmer seg for å oppsøke broren for å bli venner igjen – men mange hindringer dukker opp på hans vei, og broren har sin egen agenda. The Young Master er Jackie Chans andre helaftens spillefilm som regissør og et prakteksempel på hans tidlige talent for actionkomedier.

Flying Guillotine 2
In 1975, Ho Meng-hua, master of the “esoteric weapon” kung-fu thriller, started an international sensation with The Flying Guillotine. But while he went on to direct such further “crazy cutlery” hits as The Dragon Missile, popular demand insisted upon a sequel to the original decapitator-on-a-chain. So, first, they got a script by a trio of writers, featuring a new, improved “Ring-Chain Flying Guillotine” and the only weapon that can stop it, the “Toothed Wheel”. Next they matched Cheng Kang, the director of their popular true crime thriller The Criminals, with Hua Shan, the director of their superheroes Super Inframan, to double-team the project. Then they cast some of the best martial arts actors in their repertory – all ably choreographed by the often unsung, but universally respected Tang Chia. Finally they filmed Ti Lung as a fugitive from the emperor’s cruelty, against the whole F.G. gang in a blade-on-blade battle to the headless death!

The Dragon Missile
Only the Shaw Brothers Studio could conceive and produce such a spectacular clash of esoteric weapons. Fans of the internationally popular "Flying Guillotine" films will appreciate the continuous kung-fu confrontations with some of the most intriguing and exciting martial arts machinery ever seen on screen. The studio’s first international action star, Lo Lieh (who burst upon the scene before even Bruce Lee in King Boxer) leads the charge as holder of the title tool - an ultra-cool flying boomerang with blades. He must take on the terrible Iron Ball Chain, Golden Net, and other deadly devices to gain control of a special elixir which will cure an all-too-treacherous royal official. Tang Chia and Yuen Cheung-yan, the underrated giants of kung-fu choreography, stage some of the best sword on shield action ever in this fun and unusual fight-fest. There are double crosses and ambushes galore before the culminating clash of sizzling steel that has to be seen to be believed.

Members of the Yang clan are infuriated when Wang Ching, a cunning prime minister of the Sung Dynasty who is in control of the army, purposely delays a counter-attack against the invaders. The Yang clan, led by Grandmother She Tai-chun (Lisa Lu), band together to form their own army and leave for the front. Meanwhile Wang Ching (Ching Miao) is passing information to the invaders who, acting on this, plan to ambush the Yangs. A Chinese general, Lu Chao, who escapes from the invaders, warns the Yangs of the ambush, and they make their attack plans. The battle ends with the defeat of the West Hsia troops – and the anger of their king, who blames the defeat on Lu Chao (Yueh Hua). The Yangs are without food and surrounded by the enemy, when the West Hsia king and his troops launch a heavy attack. But the enemy is tricked, and the West Hsia king orders his troops to retreat. Destroying roads and bridges as they go, they are pursued by resourceful Yang warriors, who are later captured. Tricked again, this time by General Lu Chao, the West Hsia king tries to regroup his army, but in vain, for She Tai-chun and her troops cause a great flood and much confusion, during which Lu Chao and his soldiers end the final battle, driving the West Hsia invaders from Chinese soil.
