If you haven’t gotten the Shawscope Vol. 1, 12-film, 8-Disc box set from Arrow Video, it is a must have! It’s incredible.
Get it on Amazon!

The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, Lau Kar-leung, 1978
Lau Kar-leung, also known as Liu Chia-liang, was the first martial arts instructor ever to become a film director. Having had extensive experience as both a stuntman and martial arts instructor on set, he brought a distinctive vision to his own films by moving away from bloodbaths and machismo in order to honor the holistic practice of kung fu—a discipline of both the body and mind.
And whilst many films feature invincible fighters at their peak, Lau had a fondness for the martial artist’s training stage, and dedicated therefore significant screen time to the depiction of rigorous practice and the development of humility, kindness, and moral standing—the qualities that make a true master.
