On Thursday I received Arrow Video's
Shawscope Volume One limited edition Blu-ray box set. This was a last minute purchase because the box set went on offer over on Amazon for as low as £55 so I figured that was probably the cheapest it'll ever be before it sells out.
Volume One contains 12 films from the Shaw Bros line-up;
King Boxer (天下第一拳, directed by Chung Chang-wha),
The Boxer from Shantung (馬永貞, directed by Chang Cheh & Pao Hsueh-li),
Five Shaolin Masters (少林五祖, directed by Chang Cheh),
Shaolin Temple (少林寺, directed by Chang Cheh),
Mighty Peking Man (猩猩王, directed by Ho Meng-hua),
Challenge of the Masters (陸阿采與黃飛鴻, directed by Lau Kar-leung),
Executioners from Shaolin (洪熙官, directed by Lau Kar-leung),
Chinatown Kid (唐人街功夫小子, directed by Chang Cheh),
The Five Venoms (五毒, directed by Chang Cheh),
Crippled Avengers (残缺, directed by Chang Cheh),
Heroes of the East (中華丈夫, directed by Lau Kar-leung), and
Dirty Ho (爛頭何, directed by Lau Kar-leung).
Worth mentioning that
Mighty Peking Man was previously released in the UK on Blu-ray by 88 Films prior so it's good to see some of their titles come back in print.
