3. Five Superfighters

I couldn't possibly narrow down any further, I nearly keeled over whittling down to five.

I prefer Ivy Ling Po over Wang Yu and the teahouse fight against Wong Hap is fantastic. Her weapon reminds me of Star Wars (or the other way round).

As a die-hard Shaw Brothers film fanatic, it is difficult to narrow it down to just 5 titles. Picking 5 out of over 500 is like asking which child do you love more? However, it is easier if I were to list my top 5 SB films in their genres...

1- CRIPPLED AVENGERS

This is probably my favorite Chang Cheh film from his

venoms period as I rewatch this one more often. I love 'em

all, but this is the best. Over the top? Sure! But never a

dull moment and action packed from start to finish!

2- SHAOLIN MANTIS

Believe it or not, this is my favorite Liu Chia-Liang film!

'nuff said!

3- THE NEW ONE-ARMED SWORDSMAN

is my favorite Chang Cheh film from his David Chiang/Ti

Lung early '70s basher-era. *It was also my first exposure

to the Shaws as "TRIPLE IRONS" back in the 42 Street

grindhouse days!

4- AVENGING EAGLE

is my favorite Sun Chung film. What's more, Ku Feng is on

fine villainous display in both this and New One-Armed

Swordsman.

5- SUPER INFRAMAN

is my 'guilty pleasure'. This is my favorite sci-fi/horror

related Shaw film. (Actually, BLACK MAGIC PART 2 is

my favorite SB horror film, but we're limiting this list to 5.)

I enjoyed the bizarre sets and costumes, and Tang Chia's

fight choreography in this one is...let's just say unique.

As a fan of Japanese SF films & TV such as Kamen Rider

and Ultraman, I caught on to this from the start.

Well, there you go! :D
