I'd like to know what the original HK poster artwork is on the reversible side of the cover art - while I don't particularly mind this alternate art since it's a bit different, I'm not a fan of the slipcover art, especially with the choice of text font. But it's a sure fire purchase from me, having sold my Hapkido HKL DVD earlier this year to fund it. I'm much looking forward to the new interview with Angela Mao. That's some coup considering she's quite a private person.

So, there SHOULD be one more (rarely seen) bonus feature for Hapkido that isn't listed, but apparently it's still on there... hopefully they'll have official confirmation announced in the near future.

Very excited for these!

Alternate titles for those unfamiliar:

Lady Whirlwind = Deep Thrust (tagline: Mistress of the Death-Blow!)
Hapkido = Lady Kung Fu (tagline: Here comes the unbreakable China doll who gives you the licking of your life!)

Maybe... just in much, much, much, MUCH better quality... like, imagine the version that's been lurking on YouTube, multiply the quality by 10... and it's still better, lol.

Enter The Dragon and Eastern Condors. Only stuff I know her from. I knew of her reputation but never got to see anything.

Already preordered w/ that Keaton BD. I ain't saying no to any Eureka Kung Fu flicks. This is truly a golden age of Hong Kong cinema on Home Video. If me as a kid could see how goddamn stacked I am getting w/ Kung Fu movies now. Crazy awesomeness.

I'd love to see some of those Bruceploitation flicks I grew up with on BD. I loved them so much. Some were pretty decent too.

Great news!

Was £28.99 always the price at Eureka? Could have sworn it was £22.99 this morning.

I'm region-free, but I'll probably get the Arrow version. Hopefully they're also releasing other Eureka titles (Dreadnaught, Knockabout, etc.)
