Member KyFi Posted March 8, 2009 Member Share Posted March 8, 2009 I put in an order to DDDhouse, and added the two new Fortune Star DVD releases of these early-70's Golden Harvest movies. I pretty much like all the stuff from that era, but does anybody have any opinions on these two? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member The Dragon Posted March 9, 2009 Member Share Posted March 9, 2009 Two early GH releases, with some very familiar faces. Both typical bashers of the swordplay perversion. I enjoy them for their 'old skool' nature but neither is a good film. Chang Yi is the lead in Fast Sword, and Jimmy Wang Yu is in The Invincible Sword. Neither is memorable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member chen lung Posted March 9, 2009 Member Share Posted March 9, 2009 I'd fully recommend avoiding HK DVD of 'Fast Sword' because if you wait a month, a better DVD by German distributor Eyecatcher will be out - proper PAL (no ghosting like the JS DVD) and a new set of improved subtitles that re-translates dialogue and covers onscreen text (credits and signs).

Member HAZ Posted March 9, 2009 Member Share Posted March 9, 2009 Hi, Both are super cheap from DDD house. For the price, they're both worth it. The female lead from Touch of Zen is in Invincible Sword. I liked both films. h Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member KyFi Posted March 9, 2009 Author Member Share Posted March 9, 2009 Yep, I like the price on all those Golden Harvest releases---although not remastered, all the ones I've got have been decent quality, widescreen anamorphic prints. Looks like "Bandits from Shantung" is out this week, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
