The Ultimate in Kung Fu! DISCIPLES OF SHAOLIN Available on Blu-ray December 14th From 88 Films

“DISCIPLES OF SHAOLIN’ is a beautifully crafted masterpiece that requires a global audience.” – ANDREW SAROCH, FarEastFilms.com

The martial arts classic DISCIPLES OF SHAOLIN (1975) will be available on Blu-ray December 14th from 88 Films

Another Kung Fu vehicle from the infamous Shaw Brothers Studio, Disciples of Shaolin AKA Hong quan xiao zi, delivers a typically power-packed Hong Kong tale of enemy gangs and super cool fight scenes. When shaolin disciple Kuan Fung Yi (Sheng Fu) takes a job at a textile factory he soon becomes embroiled in a bitter and violent clash with the rival Manchu clan who run a neighboring mill. As well delivering some impressive martial arts set pieces, Disciples of Shaolin also provides a political punch, underlining the abuse of workers and the corruption of cruel bosses. Fast, fierce and thought provoking, this is a must for collectors of extreme Asian cinema.
