Shaw Bros (63 items)
list by coyoteblue

Chang Cheh struck gold by dropping three Taiwanese Opera performers, a Korean kicker and a muscular Chinese in a super-heroic grand guignol thriller. The result was also known as The Five Venoms, but under any title, it is one of the most popular Shaw films in America, inspiring a soft drink commercial, and even an entire rap music act's world tour. It also spawned a highly popular movie series of high-flying, blade-juggling, flesh-stabbing mayhem featuring the same actors in new stories.
