In the midst of their creative output, the Shaw Brothers studio was working on all cylinders offering films of all manner of genres, and by the 1980s they managed to start exploring with a mixture of such genres. While certainly not the first effort to do so, ‘Bloody Parrot’ finds the studio bringing together their two signature styles in wuxia-style martial arts with gross-out black magic horror into a potent and delirious blend.
Legend has it the mysterious Bloody Parrot appears on Earth during the Devil King’s birthday and will grant the finder three wishes. This causes numerous adventurers, including Yeh Ting-feng (Jason Pai Piao, from “Killer Constable”) into the search for it, as he initially teams with Constable Tieh Han (Tony Liu, from “Clan of Amazons”) to track it down. This journey leads them to Pei Yu (Jenny Liang, from “Bewitched”) who works as a prostitute at a...

When it comes to making features like this one, i love the idea of coming up with my own personal “100 Great Kung Fu Movies” of all time. It is tough choosing just 100 because you know there are many more great Kung Fu movies that are not on the list.
I have decided that to make the list, a movie must have a few hand to hand moments during fight scenes in the movies chosen. If for example its mainly sword play with one fight scene hand to hand it won’t make the list. Its old school “style” Kung Fu movies, not modern day settings.
I understand everyone will have their own personal favorites and some may not agree with my list and that’s fine because it’s nice to have different opinions on this genre which keeps it fresh and alive when having good debates.
Anyway, thank you...

Duel of the Century
Written by Chor Yuen
Directed by Chor Yuen
Hong Kong, 1981
Mystery and intrigue inspire an intrepid, confident sleuth to decipher the many machinations behind a series of appalling, loosely motivated murders, all of which are tied in some fashion or another to a bigger event, one with possible political motivations. The protagonist is an bright, analytical fellow who often has a snappy quip or two that lightens the tension of scenes involving great danger. With the help of some allies, a plot of emotional betrayal, misguided faith, revenge and insatiable political greed. If that reads exactly like the synopsis of a good old fashioned film noir adventure, that is because it fits the bill perfectly. No, readers need not fear of having clicked on the incorrect link and landed in the Friday Noir column, this is very much Shaw Brothers Saturdays. Take film noir, drape it...

This is a run down of my Top 40 kung fu movies of the 1970′s. There were so many great films in this era, that i just hope i do this list some justice. The movies chosen are just my personal choice, i understand others might have different views.
Any of the movies that make the Top 40 list must have something special to make it in the first place. So i hope you enjoy my Top 40 Kung Fu movies.
30:Iron Fisted Monk
Starring: Sammo Hung, Fung Hak On, Chan Sing, James Tien
The Husker has a heart of gold although he is full of tricks. When he is a trainee at Shaolin Temple, he cuts so many corners and devises so many labor-saving ploys that he earns the open wrath and secret admiration of his holy elders. Monk Shan, the famous kung fu master, never lets his buddhist association stand in the way of wining,...

Stuntmen: Lam Ching Ying, Yuen Biao
Dirty Tiger, Crazy Frog is a traditional kung fu movie starring Sammo Hung and Lau Kar Wing. Although it wasn’t a popular as his other movies at the time, this still deserves to be watched, with good fight scenes throughout and the final 20 minutes or so, see Sammo and Lau kar Wing going toe to toe with villain Lee Hoi San.
The film also features cameos from Yuen Biao, Lam Ching-ying and Hsiao Ho.
Plot
Rascal Dirty Tiger (Lau) is enlisted to find dimwitted Crazy Frog (Hung), the wayward husband of an old matron. Tiger captures his quarry with little difficulty but Frog makes him an offer: his freedom in exchange for the “Invincible Armour,...
