Wir nehmen euch in dieser Folge zurück in eine Zeit, in der Männer mit langen Zöpfen und weißen Augenbrauen durch die Luft flogen, jeder Schlag mit einem kreativen Soundeffekt untermalt wurde und nahezu alle Filme in einem Wu-Tang-Song gesampelt wurden. Doch wer glaubt, dass die Shaw Brothers nur Martial Arts Filme produziert haben, der hat die Rechnung ohne fliegende Köpfe, Skelettdämonen und Hündchen gemacht.

King Hu is one of China's most influential filmmakers, famous for his historical martial arts films which helped to popularise the wuxia (‘martial chivalry') genre in the 1960s and 70s with classic films like 'Come Drink with Me' (1966), 'Dragon Inn' (1967), and 'A Touch of Zen' (1971) - the latter of which he received the Technical Grand Prize at the 1975 Cannes Film Festival. His work has inspired directors ranging from Tsui Hark to Ang Lee, Zhang Yimou to Quentin Tarantino, and since his death in 1997 at the age of 64, organisations like the King Hu Foundation have continued to promote and champion his work. As a result, much of his exquisite output is now readily available around the world in lovingly restored digital formats. To discuss the life and work of this extraordinary filmmaker, we welcome two King Hu Foundation board members: Michael Berry, Director of the Center for Chinese Studies at UCLA, who is also a Professor of Contemporary Chinese Cultural Studies; and the filmmaker, Céline Zen, a Chinese-born, France-based producer and director. We discuss the early life of the Beijing-born auteur who was forced into exile in Hong Kong after the Chinese Communist Revolution, and his journey from artist to actor, writer, and director, becoming one of the biggest talents at new Shaw Brothers production company before his relocation to Taiwan. We discuss the meaning of 'wuxia'; his influences - from his love of calligraphy to Ming dynasty history and the Chinese Opera - and how, despite his critical praise, his films were not always successful in their day, and the toll this took on his work in later life. A huge thank you to Audrey Edwards at the King Hu Foundation for her help in organising this episode.LINKSKing Hu Foundation website: https://kinghufoundationusa.org/King Hu Foundation on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kinghufoundation/ Michael Berry's website: https://michael-berry.com/ Michael Berry on the UCLA website: https://www.alc.ucla.edu/person/michael-berry/ Michael Berry on Douban: http://site.douban.com/108600/Michael Berry on Weibo: https://weibo.com/bairuiwenMichael Berry on X: https://x.com/BairuiwenMichael Berry on ClubHouse: http://clubhousedb.com/user/bairuiwen Buy Michael Berry's books on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Michael-Berry/author/B001HCVQQWCéline Zen on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/celine-zen-7a6570195/Céline Zen on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4508435/Trailer for Céline Zen's 'Vous êtes jeunes, vous êtes beaux' (2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vIOOeqph08A tribute to King Hu: https://youtu.be/rGueQmyN_kMKung Fu Movie Guide Podcast - 'Dragon Inn' special - Live in Lewes with Katrina Durden: https://bit.ly/KFMGPodKatrinaDurdenLiveBuy King Hu films on Blu-ray in the UK from 88 Films and Eureka Entertainment: 'Come Drink with Me' (https://88-films.myshopify.com/products/come-drink-with-me-88-asia-24), 'Dragon Inn' (https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/dragon-inn/), 'A Touch of Zen' (https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/a-touch-of-zen/), 'The Fate of Lee Khan' (https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/the-fate-of-lee-khan/), 'The Valiant Ones' (https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/the-valiant-ones/), 'Raining in the Mountain' (https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/raining-in-the-mountain-kong-shan-ling-yu/), 'Legend of the Mountain' (https://eurekavideo.co.uk/movie/legend-of-the-mountain/).King Hu profile on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/KingHuProfile 'Dragon Inn' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/DragonGateInn'A Touch of Zen' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/ATouchOfZen Hosted on Acast.

THE BOXER'S OMEN / MO (1983) Hay películas que desafían la lógica, que cruzan la línea entre lo absurdo y lo sagrado, entre lo grotesco y lo sublime. Películas que parecen haber sido concebidas en un delirio febril... y sin embargo, ahí están. Hoy, en este episodio, nos sumergimos en una de las joyas más extrañas, extremas y fascinantes del cine de culto oriental: The Boxer's Omen. Producida por los legendarios estudios Shaw Brothers en 1983, esta cinta hongkonesa no es solo una película: es una experiencia sensorial cargada de misticismo budista, venganza, magia negra, monjes guerreros, cadáveres flotantes, insectos viscosos, hechicería, y escenas que no se borran fácilmente de la memoria. Te invitamos a abrir esa caja A cruzar la puerta del templo. Y a enfrentar el destino que aguarda en lo más profundo de The Boxer's Omen. En esta ocasión dos mienbros de nuestro equipo se enfrentan por primera vez con el secreto más profundo de The Boxer's Omen.

On this episode of the podcast, Phillip goes solo to talk about 1972 Shaw Brothers movie The Water Margin, starring David Chiang, Lung Ti, and directed by Cheh Chang. This movie is a slow burn but has some cool stuff in. There are alot of names to keep track of but it's a good time. Phillip starts the show by giving the general information about the movie with some extra facts thrown in. Then he skips listener opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, because there aren't any. Phillip then walks us through the story of the film. He then talks about what he thought Tarantino might have liked or used in a film. Phillip then rates the movie on a 1 to 5 scale. Then he lets you know whether he would buy it, rent it, or find it for free. It's then time for Phil's Film Favorite of the Week; Sinners (2025) (5 stars.) Then Phillip lets you know what's coming up next week on the podcast. Come back on May 2nd when Phillip will be joined once again by "The Vern" from Cinema Recall Podcast to discuss 1969's Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. It should be a fun time. Thanks for listening.

Die glotzenden Zimbelaffen Lea, Micha und Janno machen sich auf eine neue Reise rund um die Filmwelt und schauen sich in der neuen Connection "Monks around the world" an, wie und warum es verschiedenste Mönche auf die große Leinwand geschafft haben. In dieser Episode geht es in den fernen Osten, nach Hong Kong. Dort, wo einst die Shaw Brothers das knallharte Filmgeschäft beherrschten, brachten es so manche Menschen zu einiger Bekanntheit - entsprechendes Talent vorausgesetzt. Letzteres hat Stephen Chow ganz sicher, wie er unter anderem mit "Liebesgrüße aus Peking" und dem Welthit "Kung Fu Hustle" unter beweis stellte. Heute soll aber um mittlerweile gratis bei Netzkino verfügbaren "Shaolin Soccer" gehen, bei dem Chow in Personalunion als Hauptdarsteller, Regisseur, Drehbuchautor, Produzent und Actionchoreograph strahlen durfte.

Vamos allá de nuevo con una de terror de la Shaw Brothers, y encima de Kuei Chi-Hung, del que ya hablé el año pasado. Corpse Mania es un curioso intento de colar elementos de giallo en una peli de HK, pero no os preocupeis, encontrareis los habituales gusanos y cosas desdagradables, y en general mucha necrofilia. Agh.

Episode 6: “The Emergence of Golden Harvest and the Flourishing of the Film Industry in the 1970s Under Free Competition" At the start of the 1970s, the Shaw Brothers Company, with its studios and cinema chains and a massive production volume, seemed like an invincible giant in the film industry. However, it created its formidable competitor: Raymond Chow, a former Shaw Brothers executive. Chow left the company due to disagreements with Mona Fong's management and founded Golden Harvest. Golden Harvest discovered Bruce Lee, took over Cathay Organization's studios, and established its cinema chain. The success of Michael Hui's comedies repeatedly broke box office records. Golden Harvest evolved from a financially struggling company into an internationally renowned giant capable of rivaling Shaw Brothers. It became a pillar of Hong Kong cinema from the 1980s to the 1990s, embodying a legendary success story. In addition to Golden Harvest, several independent film companies achieved significant box office success during the 1970s, bringing fresh ideas to the industry. These included companies like Seasonal Film Corporation and Bo Ho Film Company, which thrived due to the free competition in Hong Kong's film industry. In this sixth episode of the podcast, we divided our discussion into three segments. In the third segment, we covered the following topics:How were Hong Kong and Taiwanese films related in the 1970s, and why can this period be considered the closest in history?With the cessation of Cantonese films, Taiwanese films entered the Hong Kong market. Which works were well-received?Why did many Taiwanese filmmakers come to Hong Kong to register companies and conduct post-production work there? Why did Hong Kong's post-production industry benefit from the influx of Taiwanese films during this period?How did Taiwanese films decline in Hong Kong, and how is this related to the creative explosion in Hong Kong's free atmosphere? How did Hong Kong surpass Taiwanese filmmakers' works in a free environment?Did "Filmmakers from Mainland China" continue to develop in the 1970s?What connections existed between Hong Kong's film and foreign (mainly American) film industries? What impact did their interactions since the 1960s have on Hong Kong film production?In the 1970s, many film studios closed down and were replaced by equipment rental companies, such as Salon. Why did this phenomenon occur, and what contributions did it make to the film industry? ****************** Follow the hosts: Kay Ho's Instagram: @kayho1430 Po Fung's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/flash1030/ This episode is part of the "Preserve Yesterday - Back to Lee Theatre VR" project, which was a collaboration with the Hong Kong XR Museum.

In this sixth episode of the podcast, we divided our discussion into three segments. In the first segment, we covered the following topics: The background of Golden Harvest's establishment: What is the background of its founders? What personnel did Raymond Chow take with him from Shaw Brothers? What were the reasons for the departure?Chang Cheh initially planned to leave with Raymond Chow but ultimately did not—why was that?How did the emergence of the superstar Bruce Lee save Golden Harvest?How did kung fu films become box office hits after Bruce Lee's appearance, and how did they differ from the earlier wuxia films?What defines a true kung fu film?What was Golden Harvest's satellite company, and how did Golden Harvest utilize it to reduce costs? ****************** Follow the hosts: Kay Ho's Instagram: @kayho1430 Po Fung's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/flash1030/ This episode is part of the "Preserve Yesterday - Back to Lee Theatre VR" project, which was a collaboration with the Hong Kong XR Museum.

The Gruesome Twosome once again take on the Shaw Brothers when Brian and Steve watch the Oily Maniac. An incel power fantasy about coconut magic and bringing women to justice. For all the yelling and head smashing he does, perhaps a better title would've been The Toxic Masculinity Avenger.

On this weeks episode of the podcast we return to both Shaw Brothers and Shaolin to unravel the murder mystery of SHAOLIN INTRUDERS. We ask Devan whether she's changed her mind on Shaolin films, Cyrus surprises us all and, as always, I gush over what I think is an unheralded classic. With all its weapon fights, does Devan absolutely love this one? Later, I give the other two some solid "Would you rather?" questions and we chat about weird dreams (I take it to a dark place!). Enjoy!

We take on Monkey Man with Martin House Brewing's Gorilla Blood and really like one of them. Our film pairing is perfect: Mad Monkey Kung Fu (1979), our first time with Shaw Brothers kung fu....with a beer that smells 'like a butthole.' You kind of have to listen now.  Hear this week's After Hours bonus episode at: http://www.patreon.com/beerandamoviepodcast

As the Month of Pete winds down we are both relieved and saddened to see it go. With movies like HK: The Forbidden Superhero, we can only pray it can't get worse but then shocks us as he introduces films that are so much fun we can't contain ourselves. Right out the gate, he hits us with 7th Curse, which is a legit classic but then ends the month with a movie that so wholly encompasses our childhood that it feels like a smack across the face with a big rubber nostalgia d!ck. Hmmm.. maybe I should rethink my metaphor. Josh from The Evil Deaths podcasts joins us this week as Pete selected Super Inframan and we are over the moon.  The Shaw Brothers movie studio out of Hong Kong is beloved by all who even passively enjoy the kung fu genre but the magic of this film is that it blends ridiculous martial arts camp seamlessly with Japanese tokusatsu. What's tokusatsu? Just think Power Rangers and you know exactly both what I mean and what you're getting into.  Don't think too hard about this film. Just enjoy.

This week's pick is the 1976 Shaw Brothers goofy horror/revenge movie Oily Maniac. A crippled man uses black magic to transform himself into an oil monster that deals out violent justice to bad people.

It's 1978, so don your bell bottoms and get groovy, baby, because we're into the old school Shaw Brothers and the Five Deadly Venoms! Good times were had by all here so come and enjoy the talk through on your drive or treadmill, or whatever you like!If you can subscribe and leave us a five-star (deadly) review, that'd be the dopest thing all day.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/you-have-offended-this-podcast-1.

This week's pick is the bonkers 1983 Shaw Brothers film Holy Flame of the Martial World. A brother and sister seek vengeance for the death of their parents through using the mythical yin/yang Holy Flame kung-fu technique. Featuring Golden Snake Boy, snake bladder induced finger lasers, and the deadly Ghostly Laugh!

A psychotic craftsman pits two rival Kung-Fu masters against each other while designing special lanterns from a disturbing source.

From Chile to Mexico to Hollywood - and back again - Marko Zaror's incredible rise in the action world reached a new crescendo in 2023. Known as the 'Latin Dragon', Marko's scene-stealing performance as the main heavy, Chidi, in Chad Stahelski's masterpiece, 'John Wick: Chapter 4', saw him duel on-screen with fight legends Hiroyuki Sanada, Donnie Yen and Keanu Reeves; meanwhile, back in his home country of Chile, he reunited with his childhood friend - the filmmaker Ernesto Díaz Espinoza - to produce and star in their fifth indie action film together, the deeply personal 'The Fist of the Condor'. Now capable of shifting between key roles in huge productions and making his own movies the way he wants them to be made, Zaror has reached a sweet-spot in his career - but it has not been an easy journey with plenty of bumps along the way. At one point, he even considered retiring from the film industry altogether, and training to become a professional MMA fighter, until a timely conversation with Robert Rodriguez convinced him otherwise. He has since gone on to work with Rodriguez in many film and TV projects, including 'Machete Kills', 'From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series', and 'Alita: Battle Angel'. In this conversation, Marko explores his roots as a Bruce Lee-obsessed kid in Chile with a dream of making it in the movies, to eventually ripping up the screen in one of the biggest - and best - action franchises in Hollywood history.LINKSMarko Zaror on IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1047252/Marko Zaror on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markozaror/Marko Zaror on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/markozaroroficialMarko Zaror profile on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/ProfileMarkoZaror'Fist of the Condor' trailer: https://youtu.be/x53EpE12AsY'Fist of the Condor' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/FistOfTheCondor2023'John Wick: Chapter 4' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/JohnWickChapter4KFMG'Kiltro' review on Kung Fu Movie Guide: https://bit.ly/Kiltro2006Our not-so-comprehensive list of fight-centric action films released in 2023: https://bit.ly/KFMGPodEOYShow2023PartOneSPONSORThis episode is sponsored by 'Five Deadly Rebels', a kung fu sci-fi scripted podcast from DimensionGate, available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and anywhere you get your podcasts.

Easily the heaviest film we've covered in the Lau Kar Leung project and very much an atypical Lau Kar Leung film and can be seen as an elegy towards the Shaw Brothers studio, which would shut down the following year. This film is based off of Chinese folklore in the Song dynasty and features great performances and perhaps my favorite fight in the entire Lau Kar Leung filmography. Stars: Gordon Liu, Alexander Fu Sheng, Kara Hui, Lily Li, Philip Ko https://letterboxd.com/film/the-8-diagram-pole-fighter/ https://letterboxd.com/director/lau-kar-leung-2/ Send us an email at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠zafilm2film⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or tweet us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/zafilm2film⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ !

In this episode we cover the key themes Lau Kar Leung would return to throughout his career. Due to his background as a martial artist, he was much more interested in the passing of Martial Arts knowledge down and different cultural aspects than his contemporaries inside the Shaw Brothers. While many of these aspects became genre tropes, his work still stands out for more than just the choreography. https://letterboxd.com/director/lau-kar-leung-2/ Send us an email at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠zafilm2film⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or tweet us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/zafilm2film⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ !

In the second episode of the Lau Kar Leung Project, I discuss Shaw Brothers and many of the other key collaborators to Lau's career. This includes Chang Cheh, Gordon Liu, Kara Hui, Hsiao Ho, Lo Lieh and others. https://letterboxd.com/director/lau-kar-leung-2/ Send us an email at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠zafilm2film⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or tweet us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/zafilm2film⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ !

Vaughn, Lee, Bobby, and Mike discuss the Jimmy Wang Yu classic that puts a shiv into the Shaw Brothers.  A one-armed kung fu expert brings his students to a martial arts contest where a blind assasin with a blade hat starts beheading every one-armed man he can find. Chaos ensues, will our teacher survive? Is this murder spree actually because people didn't pay their restaurant bill? Find out on this action packed episode of the bin... which is also a sequel and Vaughn messed up the scheduling. 

Shawgust continues and our friend Ian from Rock! Shock! Pop! and the Queens Comic Podcast joins us again for our annual discussion of a Shaw Brothers horror movie.

One is an illegal immigrant on the run from a ruthless Hong Kong gangster. The other, a struggling student from Taiwan just trying to make his father proud. Their paths cross in the most unlikely of circumstances, but together they must survive the mean streets of…. CHINATOWN! That's right, this week we are taking a look at the 1977 Shaw Brothers Kung Fu classic, ‘Chinatown Kid'. Directed by genre pioneer Chang Cheh, and starring one of the biggest superstars of the era, Alexander Fu Sheng, this gripping tale of struggle, brotherhood, and revenge, delivers plenty of hard-hitting action, as well as a surprising amount of social commentary as well. Today's episode is extra long as we spend a good 30 minutes trying to dissect how many different versions/edits there are of this film, and how the plot completely changes depending on which version you watch! We also take a look at the amazing Kung Fu battles, the thematic elements which make it a surprising entry in the long list of Hong Kong migration films, as well the interesting and tragic career of Alexander Fu Sheng. Don't forget to subscribe, download, like, and share with your friends! Thanks again for the continued support and we hope you enjoy!

The Thieves are back with another Shaw Brothers kung fu classic!  On today's show, we are reviewing director Lau Kar-Leung's spectacular Eight Diagram Pole Fighter.  Released at the tail end of the Shaw Brothers era, the film stars the iconic Gordon Liu, Alexander Fu, and Kara Hui as the last surviving members of the Yang family who pursue a bloody, teeth shattering, revenge against the Khitan invaders that defeated their clan in battle.  Timestamps: [00:00] Intro, Mario & Sonic movies, more Showa era Gamera talk [34:40] The Eight Diagram Pole Fighter Review
