During the Golden Age of kung fu cinema, director Chang Cheh and his protégés, David Chiang and Ti Lung, were the most successful screen team.

Director Chang Cheh was awarded Best Director and David Chiang’s haunting portrayal earned him the Best Actor Award at the 1970 Asian Film Festival.

THE ANONYMOUS HEROES (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (2.35:1) / Mandarin & English Dub DTS-HD Master Audio Mono / 108 min.)

Chang Cheh, the director, and his two stars Ti Lung and David Chiang were famously referred to as the “iron triangle” due to their numerous successful collaborations. However, it could also be argued that they should have been known as the “iron rectangle” due to the significant impact of action choreographer Lau Kar-leung. This film, set in post-Chinese Revolution and featuring rebels fighting against warlords, serves as a prime example of the impressive abilities of the four individuals both behind and in front of the camera. Their collaboration resulted in this film becoming a top-ten hit in 1971.

The iron triangle and action choreographer Liu Chia-liang have once again achieved success. David Chiang, a Chinese boxer, journeys to Bangkok to locate his missing brother, who may or may not be the Thai boxer portrayed by Ti Lung. This combination of kung fu and Thai boxing was a major hit in 1971, ranking just below Bruce Lee’s The Big Boss.

THE DUEL (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (2.35:1) / Mandarin & English Dub DTS-HD Master Audio Mono / 110 min.)

Before Bruce Lee gained fame, the most popular heroes in Hong Kong movies were Ti Lung and David Chiang. The following year after their breakthrough in Chang Cheh’s iconic rebellious action film, Vengeance!, they appeared in this epic showdown as a adopted son facing family fears and a street-smart knight named “Rambler.” They initially don’t trust each other but must put aside their differences to survive a dangerous challenge involving fire and physical combat.

THE ANGRY GUEST (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (2.35:1) / Mandarin & English Dub DTS-HD Master Audio Mono / 93 min.)

Taking place during the final years of the Ching Dynasty, this gripping story of martial arts, betrayal, and vengeance delves into a notorious scandal from Chinese history. It also served as a defining moment for the director and cast, propelling them to superstardom. Notably, Ti Lung’s portrayal of a jealous governor who murders his friend to claim his wife earned him an Outstanding Performance award at the Golden Horse Awards.

The film “The Savage 5” is available in 1080p high-definition widescreen (2.35:1) with Mandarin and English dub options and DTS-HD Master Audio Mono. The runtime is 95 minutes.

The protagonists are fierce due to the fact that the antagonists are ruthless, heartless, and malicious. Initially, a group only desires for the town locksmith to unlock a stolen safe, but it quickly transforms into torture. While reminiscent of The Seven Samurai, The Savage 5 stands out as the director and his esteemed action choreographers, Liu Chia-liang and Tang Chia, meticulously craft each of its numerous battles with raw brutality and intense force. The outcome is an exceptionally authentic, even harrowing, demonstration of nail-biting tension.

Director Chang Cheh honored these unnamed individuals by depicting their heroic battle in a film, featuring esteemed actors such as Ti Lung, David Chiang, Alexander Fu Sheng, and Chen Kuan-tai.
