A poster over at blu-ray.com said a blu ray of The Daredevils is forthcoming from German label, Edel. There other recent releases have been English friendly, so I'm hoping this one will be too.

Very nice. Is that @KUNG FU BOB who did the covers? Do you know if this will be English friendly?

Do you know if the new German release, will have restored picture & sound?. A generous and very helpful fan sent me a Wide-Screen copy of this.

The "A Cover" is a HK theatrical poster I believe. The "B Cover" is by artist Ralf Krause. The "C Cover" is by me.

Sadly TVP were NOT allowed to include English subs on this release. I'm still excited about it though as it will include an audio commentary by @Mike Leeder and Arne Venema. There's also an audio commentary by "Mr. TVP" himself- wish I could speak German, because he's very knowledgeable about Hong Kong cinema and also very funny (which I know because he also speaks fantastic English).

Thanks for the update and further info. It's too bad it's not going to be English friendly but the audio commentary by those two are always entertaining. Fantastic looking "C" cover btw, like all of your fine work! 👍

Well, at least I'm glad that German speakers will have a kick-ass Blu-ray of SPL.

I re-watched it before doing the cover, and despite having seen it at least, I'd guess, thirty times, it's still emotionally impactful, and features some of the greatest modern-day martial arts fights in all of Asian cinema. Donnie Yen, Sammo Hung, and Wu Jing give incredible physical performances, delivering fights that are perfect in every way. Add to that the lighting, music, cinematography, and expert action direction. Each of the action scenes are still exhilarating, even after all these viewing and years since this was made. Plus, the jobs that Simon Yam, Donnie and Sammo do acting-wise? Their performances in this are among my top favorites for all three actors. And despite not having much back-story to work with, all the supporting actors give terrific performances too, especially Liu Kai-Chi. You can feel his tightly coiled tension emanating off the screen. Yeah... one of my all-time top Hong Kong flicks! 😁
