Here’s a grand list of every Shaw Brothers Martial Arts film in order of release. There’s a lot, and yes, I’m going to review them all, in order… eventually! Alongside this series, I’ll also be watching some related films that aren’t within the genre, such as Chang Cheh’s forays into musicals and drama. These films will also be included here, and will be notated accordingly. Also included are a couple of non-Shaw films that were highly influential (such as the Bruce Lee films), or other films that I think will be interesting (such as the first Golden Harvest film). I thought it would be interesting to see them within context of the Shaw output, and will be reviewing them in order as well.
The list format will be:
Title / Director / HK Release Date / *
The star will designate films where the primary genre is not, or not strictly, Martial Arts, but they somehow relate to the overall series.
(I know that many of the early films are not really Martial Arts films as we know them, but for the time they were the genre.)
As I finish certain predefined “phases” of the list I will be posting a Top 10 list for that section as well.
The completed lists are available at the links below:
Top 10 Shaw Bros Martial Arts Films of the 1960s
Top 10 1970–1971 Shaw Bros Martial Arts Films
Top 10 1972–1973 Shaw Bros Martial Arts Films
Top 10 1974–1975 Shaw Bros Martial Arts Films
Top 10 1976–1977 Shaw Bros Martial Arts Films
If you have any questions, you want to tell me I’m crazy, whatever, feel free to leave a comment.
So without further ado… the list!
