Whaaat?? To Kill A Mastermind?

Things have certainly changed from the days of the green tinted print - which I happened to really like, although the latest version floating around is beautiful.

 

I didn't really see in the thread, but there must be some out there that are going crazy like I am for the 4k of To Kill a Mastermind. That will be my 1st 4k purchase & I cannot think of a better 1st one. That & the Severin 8 disc clone set should be here this week. Cannot wait to have those bad boys in my hands!!!!

Did you mean To Kill with Intrigue? Because the 88 release of To Kill a Mastermind is only 1080p HD not 4K.

To Kill a Mastermind on blu is just unreal. This announcement is as amazing as they get, 88 really knocked it out of the park with this release. And it comes with that kickass beauty of a cover. If this is all just a dream don't wake me up.

Yeah, I got a little excited when I saw the To Kill a Mastermind box!

 

I'm still looking forward to seeing To Kill with Intrigue in the 4k setup, that will be so great.

To Kill With Intrigue is up for pre-order now. I went with the 4K for this release, @KUNG FU BOB really liking the art for this one. 

Thanks, @clanarchy. :bs_smile::bs_martialgreeting:

That doesn't look like his style. It looks like a Sean Longmore cover though I could be wrong.

I believe @PandaPawPawis correct. That looks like Sean Longmore's art to me too. What an exciting release!

A thing of beauty!

I'm glad to see it comes with a booklet and poster. That's a reproduction of the very cool Thai poster (I've got an original of this one).

I'm extremely excited to rewatch this one with my son in 4K. I showed it to him way back when he was around 11, but he can't remember it, so he's in for a treat.

Have all of Jackie’s Lo Wei films been released? If so, I’m gonna guess and say this is “ The Challenger” 😎

There is a Korean version of this one? That wasn't in the previous 88 release?

The Holy Virgin Vs The Evil Dead (July 1) and An Autumn's Tale (July 15) are now listed in the "Coming Soon" section.

I was hoping to have this before my shagging holiday in Phinas. Unfortunately they changed the release date from 24th June to 1st July.

I still can't believe that we get the MASTERMIND from 88films...what do you think guys? Any chances for Chu Yuan's THE KILLER?

There are still some of my favorites missing...THE MASTER, LIFE GAMBLE, TIGER KILLER, REVENGE OF THE CORPSE...

Wasn't LIFE GAMBLE recently released on one of the Shout Shaw Blu ray box sets? Or am I imaging that?

Hope it includes a viewing option in old school 3D, with included glasses. The 3D releases of wuxia films from this time are great fun to watch. Thinking Dynasty, revenge Of The Shogun Women. Shot using the same 3D system as on Bodyguards.

I'm sure it will have the classic red and cyan anaglyph style.  Honestly, I'd be more surprised if it were encoded in the modern format for those 3D tvs that were being pushed as the big new thing about... 10 or so years ago?  Do they even make those anymore?

Echoing what @Knetan said, I'm really hoping I won't need a 3D-compatible TV and 3D-compatible Blu-ray player just to watch this. The Dynasty release was great; just a regular Blu-ray that came with the anaglyph glasses.

Can't believe I didn't mention this in my first post, but the Magnificent Bodyguards cover art by @KUNG FU BOB is fantastic as always.
