I've had this thing sitting around for months....you know, the 50 movie boxset Mill Creek put out(I believe its Mill Creek)

I've watched a few films...Shaolin Deadly Legs was good and I moderately enjoyed a few others...is there anything else worth checking out in this box?

Oh, I will...

basically I was just wondering if there are any hidden gems stuck in there I should watch right away.

Thanks for the help, though...

NINJA DEATH 1

NINJA PROTECTOR

NINJA CHAMPION

RETURN OF THE KUNG FU DRAGON

SHADOW NINJA

SHAOLIN DEADLY KICKS

SHAOLIN TEMPLE

THE BIG FIGHT

THE SNAKE, THE TIGER, THE CRANE

everything included there....and 30 others.

Im curious about one particular film in the box...SHaolin Temple...I just popped it in. Im about 30 minutes in...so far It's the typical "must avenge everyones death" plot. I tried to do some info searching but nothing came up...At first I thought it might have been Joesph Kuo's Shaoin Temple, but thats far off...It stars Shu Feng according to the credits, but I haven't seen her yet. But I do belive I've seen Man Kong Lung as the "prince's" bodyguard.

Any idea what this might be? I doubt its actually called Shaoin Temple

That Shaolin Temple is "Super Spirit Pagoda" Starring Hsu Feng, Chia Ling & Man Kong Lung

Honestly, Kung Fu Comedy isn't really my thing, so I've kinda leaned away from it....i'm sure I'll watch it eventually, but it wont be any time soon.

Shadow Ninja aka Killer in White is hardcore kung fu action with Steve Tung Wei and Yen Shi Kwan. Good overall movie, with some funny scenes and some extremely brutal scenes.

Just checked the link for Impossible Kid, i forgot that starred weng weng. love the theme song for this movie.

You mean the theme music heard in HEROIC ONES and MONKEY KUNG FU? The SECRET RIVALS music is from THE BIG GUNDOWN.

HEROES OF THE WILD aka HEROES OF SHAOLIN is pretty good.

I've got this 20 pack, Chase Step by Step and Infernal Street are good bashers, Hand of Death aka The Tongfather (love that title!) is good too but this copy is pretty ****ty. Image of Bruce Lee is another good movie and I don't really like the clone films, Bruce Lee the Invincible has fighting gorillas in it so check that one out. Shadow Ninja is a proper shady re-titling, Killer Wears White is a lot more apt, great shapes but the usual KF comedy shenanigans.
