Shaolin Long Arm

In the tradition of Bruce Lee's THE CHINESE CONNECTION and FISTS OF FURY comes this scenic, blood-flecked clash of cultures. Like Bruce, the hero has even given his ma a promise not to fight! But that vow is forgotten when a quaint coastal Taiwanese town is terrorized by Japanese sadist and their insidious collaborators. Then our temple-trained champion uses his Shaolin long-armed style to break bones and take names...not necessarily in that order. Many a samurai sword swinging killer with Hitler mustaches are dispatched under his fingers and feet of fury but when he must face a tiger clawing traitor for the soul of the village and heart of the girl he loves all bets are off.

The Takers

After a breakfast of LSD and hitchhikers, The Takers--two berserk bikers--decide to go upscale when they spot suburban housewife Laura and bachelorette Barbi, follow them to Laura's home, and invite themselves in: "We're gonna have us a party with some educated social-type broads!"

The Notorious Frame-up

Wang, a womanising businessman miles away from home, makes it a sport to seduce young women. After one of his conquests got pregnant with his child and died after the abortion, one after another of his lovers are found murdered. It is only when he is arrested and convicted for these crimes that he finds himself embroiled in a plot of revenge. Based on the work of Japanese novelist Togawa Masako which was previously adapted by director Nakahira Kō into The Hunter’s Diary (1964 in Japan) and the Hong Kong version Diary of a Lady-killer (1969), Ho Fan’s remake, his third film for Shaw Brothers as director, is a stylistic tour de force and a more authentic rendering than the 1969 version, grippingly suspenseful and provocative with clever shots, dark humour, and sophisticated treatment of contemporary attitudes about sexual liberation, exploring the conflicts over human nature and desire.
