I probably own about 90% of the Shaw movies that I want, and haven't placed a DDDhouse order in a year or so-- but I put one in today to pick up a few odds and ends that I didn't have and that DDDhouse DID still have. So, I got:

* Asia-Pol

* The Casino

* Vengeful Beauty

I haven't seen any of them, but given the descriptions I'm sure I'll enjoy all three.

Any opinions on these?

Vengeful beauty is great if remember correct. Have seen it once years ago, I think it has wang lung wei also, in small role tho.

Good movie. Yueh Hua is in it & Lo Lieh is actually the dad of Wang Lung Wei's character, who was a brother & sister - Lam Fei Wong & Shaw Yin Yin..

I liked it more than I thought I would, very nice sets pieces.

Vengeful Beauty is Ho Meng-Hua`s follow-up to Flying Guillotine. Though, it takes a different turn. You can watch Vengeful Beauty without having seen Flying Guillotine but it is interesting how the two are tied-in together. But, VB is a pretty kick-ass film. I think that I might like it more than the original.

Thanks for the info--looking forward to that one.

I'm also intrigued about Asia-Pol. Jimmy Wang Yu's first modern actioner, Nikkatsu co-production, Jo Shishido as the villain, location shooting instead of sets. Even if it's not that great a movie, sounds like there's enough stuff to make it cool.

Huh, did DDDHouse get more Celestial stock in at some point? I'm pretty sure that both Asia-Pol and Vengeful Beauty were out of stock there a year or so ago, and I assumed they weren't coming back. Angry Guest is up there too now, and I'm pretty sure I got an ebay copy of that because it was gone from DDDHouse.

Yes, they got some OOP titles. I got angry guest from there some months ago and they even had once super-rare secret service of imperial court re-listed. That I already owned tho and I think someone said "new" version was without slipcase.

There are a bunch of reprints that were put out for some titles. They are easy to spot because they don't have the slip cover or insert.
