- From slimy creatures to supernatural wizardry to sex-crazed serial killers, the biggest collection in Arrow Video's Shawscope series yet.One of Shaws' most beloved cult classics, Hua Shan's tokusatsu tribute SUPER INFRAMAN stars Danny Lee (The Killer) as the titular high-kicking superhero, defending the planet against a demon queen and her legion of subterranean mutant minions. Lee also stars as a monster vigilante issuing vicious justice in Ho Meng-hua's creeptastic OILY MANIAC and as the prince granted magical powers in Pao Hsueh-li's fantastical wuxia BATTLE WIZARD Director Ho next treats us to a double-helping of occult mayhem with BLACK MAGIC and its sequel, where Ti Lung battles wicked voodoo doctors with the power to cast spells and raise the dead. Four more doses of unhinged madness follow from Kuei Chih-hung in the form of BEWITCHED and the HEX trilogy, an unforgettable quadruple serving of possession and witchcraft that presaged his notorious brain-melting classic The Boxer's Omen. Master filmmaker Chor Yuen adds a dose of horror to his trademark wuxia-mystery style in BAT WITHOUT WINGS in which a young sword fighter must end a deranged martial arts master-turned-multiple murderer's perverted rampage. Hua Shan returns with BLOODY PARROT an eye-poppingly vivid horror fantasy about two swordsmen hunting a demon that offers to grant wishes. Lau Kar-wing's kung fu jiangshi comedy THE FAKE GHOST CATCHERS sees two conmen unwittingly enlisted to battle spirits from the underworld, while Tang Tak-cheung's hair-raising wuxia fantasia DEMON OF THE LUTE has to be seen to be believed. Yang Chuen's gruesome splatterfest SEEDING OF A GHOST has a taxi driver enlist a necromancer's help in avenging the murder of his wife, with sickening results; and Hua Shan returns with PORTRAIT IN CRYSTAL, a deliriously imaginative tale of a murderous swordswoman brought to life through a crystal sculpture. Last but not least, Alex Cheung's TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR is an out-of-this-world comedy in which city girl Cherie Chung is abducted by aliens and taken to a galaxy far, far away...Bonus MaterialsLIMITED EDITION BLU-RAY COLLECTION CONTENTSHigh Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentations of all sixteen films, all newly restored in 2K from the original negatives by Arrow FilmsIllustrated 60-page collectors’ booklet featuring new writing by David West, Jonathan Clements and Grady Hendrix, plus cast and crew listings and notes on each film by Ian JaneNew artwork by Matt Frank & Jolyon Yates, Mike Lee-Graham, Chris Malbon and Ilan SheadyDISC ONE – SUPER INFRAMANNewly restored lossless Mandarin, Cantonese and English mono audioNewly translated English subtitles, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubOption to view the film in its US theatrical version, Infra-man, with lossless “Stereo-Infra-Sound” surround audioBrand new commentary by martial arts cinema experts Frank Djeng & Erik KoShaws’ Little Dragon, a newly filmed interview with co-star Bruce LeSuper Ultra Infra Action!, a brand new video essay on Shaws’ tokusatsu films written and narrated by Steven SlossTheatrical trailers, TV spots and radio spotsDISC TWO – OILY MANIAC / BATTLE WIZARDNewly restored lossless Mandarin mono for both films, plus English mono for Battle WizardNewly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dub on Battle WizardBrand new commentary on Oily Maniac by critic Ian JaneBrand new commentary on Battle Wizard by Jonathan Clements, author of A Brief History of the Martial ArtsDISC THREE – BLACK MAGIC / BLACK MAGIC PART 2Newly restored lossless Mandarin and English mono audio for both filmsNewly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubsBrand new commentary for Black Magic by critic James Mudge Brand new commentary for Black Magic Part 2 by critic Samm DeighanAlternate US opening for Black Magic Part 2DISC FOUR – HEX / BEWITCHEDNewly restored lossless Cantonese and Mandarin mono audio for both filmsNewly translated English subtitles for both filmsBrand new commentary for Bewitched by critic James MudgeDISC FIVE – HEX VS.
