Picking up where Volume One left off, this sophomore collection of Hong Kong cinema classics draws together many of the best films from the final years of the Shaw Brothers studio, proving that while the end was nigh, these merchants of martial arts mayhem weren’t going to go out without a fight! Armed with stunning special features and ravishing new restorations, this boxset is even bigger and bolder than the last one.
We begin with kung fu master Lau Kar-leung’s instant classic The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, in which his adoptive brother Gordon Liu achieved overnight stardom as the young man who unexpectedly finds spiritual enlightenment on the path to vengeance; Lau and Liu followed the original with two comically inventive sequels, Return to the 36th Chamber and Disciples of the 36th Chamber, both included here. Already established as a genius at blending dazzling action with physical comedy, Lau himself plays the lead role in the hilarious Mad Monkey Kung Fu, coupled here with Lo Mar’s underrated Five Superfighters. Next, we once again meet Chang Cheh’s basher boy band the Venom Mob in no less than four of their best-loved team-ups: Invincible Shaolin, The Kid with the Golden Arm, Magnificent Ruffians and culminating in the all-star Ten Tigers of Kwangtung, co-starring Ti Lung and Fu Sheng.
After Lau brings us perhaps his best high-kicking comedy with My Young Auntie, a playful star vehicle for his real-life muse Kara Hui, we see Shaw Brothers fully embracing Eighties excess in our strangest double feature yet: Wong Jing’s breathtakingly wild shoot-‘em-up Mercenaries from Hong Kong, and Kuei Chih-hung’s spectacularly unhinged black magic meltdown The Boxer’s Omen. Last but certainly not least, Lau Kar-leung directs the last major Shaw production, Martial Arts of Shaolin, filmed in mainland China with a hot new talent named Jet Li in the lead role; it is paired in this set with The Bare-Footed Kid, a reverent remake of a Chang Cheh classic with Johnnie To (Running Out of Time) in the director’s chair and Lau back on fight choreography duties, in arguably the ultimate filmed tribute to Shaws’ everlasting cinematic legacy.

Need a Golden Harvest collection like this.
Loving these Shaw collections, here's hoping for a third (and beyond.) :)
Arrow confirmed a Vol 3 & 4 is in the works, and they'll be expanding beyond Kung Fu
They already expanded the collection. Go to their website.
They need this in 4k.
Gonna buy every set of these you release :D
I don't know if i like volume 1 or 2 best, they're both phenomenal.
Really good movies. Only haven't seen one or two.
I got this for Christmas and it is awesome
Give us a hint into what you are thinking to put in volume 3 please. I am hearing perhaps a move away from the Kung Fu titles
Some of these I have not seen yet others I have and they are awesome
Amazing trailer! Can't wait to check out this set.
Considering there's 4 Venom Mob films in this set, they get very little show time in this trailer and every 5 seconds is a clip from Mercenaries from Hong Kong.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Need boxset 3
These look awesome. One day, I will definitely get these.
the second volume has already been sould out ...
@@Oemercurial I checked a few sites I know and they still have em in stock.
@@WhirlingMusic yeah I mean officially sold out by arrow company. There are a few ones available at a good price but how long because you said one day 😄
No volume 3. Can somebody proof me wrong. Please!
I think I just had a nerdgasm…..
I've heard that you might be moving away from kung fu flix in the next box. If so, I hope it goes towards wuxia, and not the contemporary drama/spy thriller stuff
house of traps , & master of the flying guillotine in volume 3
Master of the flying guillotine isn't Shaw Brothers.
Love these movies but those English dubs were so TERRIBLE...LMAO! So incredibly awful. Wish they could have been redubbed, but I guess it adds to the charm. SHRUG.
Redubbed 😂? That will never ever happen. The voices are why shaw films are loved.
