They released a massive amount of them a while back and charged $299nt for each. They didn't sell well (from what I can tell, and the reaction to a foreigner buying them)so now you can get most titles for about $100nt ($3US). If I had seen the voting for this poll earlier I Would have had a massive list of Shaw films (after figuring out which are from the 80's). I'm addicted to buying them, but I think the older they are, the more I like them. Favorites so far are The Oily Maniac and Angel with the Iron Fists. You can even get them on VCD for about $40nt if you can't find the DVDs here.

Those movies are heavy in martial art action that why we love HK movies at 80's. Sigh, Iceman cometh also ranked low at this poll. I guess Yuen Biao isn't popular in this site. @Jimaur: True, Rigthing wrong and Yes madam ranked low at this poll. Those movies are heavy in martial art action that why we love HK movies at 80’s.

Sadly, the Hong Kong Film Critics Society did not accept my invitation to vote in this poll. And Sanney, it's easy to get PEOPLE'S HERO on DVD. The Shaw Brothers movies, however, are going, going and soon gone. Hi Lisa, this is the Internet so genre films will usually beat everything else in a popular vote.

I wish I were as cool as him. The only part of The Seventh Curse I liked was how awesome Chin Siu-Ho was during the hostage scene at the beginning. I wish I were as cool as him.
