Either I'm not very good at searching or the 90's wuxia film thread is gone?

I recently rewatched this and it was just as good as I remembered.
I first watched this on Thai vhs in the 90's and have been a fan ever since.
Just wish there was a good dvd...still looking for a decent one after all these years.

Here's the trailer that was put up by it's licensor (in 2014),wish they would make a new master and sublicense it again.
It's got some big names even...



If you have a look at what GoldenSunFilm owns...it's a crying shame they aren't remastering many of their films.

A few images from our kung fu movie show on Saturday. Quite a decent turnout over the day. Hapkido and Outlaw Brothers went down particularly well. Next years will be bigger and better.

At the 2015 Shanghai International Film Festival, L’Immagine Ritrovata premiered the full 4K restoration of A Better Tomorrow (J. Woo, Hong Kong, 1986), let's hope someone picks this up for a bluray release.

Dragon Inn (K. Hu, Hong Kong, 1976) (coming soon from Eureka) was also restored by them btw...as were Once Upon a Time in America (S. Leone, Italy/USA, 1984), A Fistful of Dollars (S. Leone, Italy/Spain/West, 1964) and The Color of the Pomegranates (S. Parajanov, Armenia, 1969).

And just today I discovered Golden Sun Films has been remastering their library (mainly for tv though)...wish someone would pick up some of their remastered classic titles in the near future.
Fantasy Mission Force (on German and Japanese blu) is one of their remasters btw,now who would have known?

At one point after several weeks of work, nearly everything had to be scrapped due to a serious technical issue, and we had to start anew. It was far from easy, but we certainly think it was worth all the countless hours and hard work to get here.
