Part two of Schlockmania's overview for the films in Arrow Video's amazing blu-ray box Shawscope Vol. 2 explores a quintet of films that will appeal to fans of old-school kung fu - 4 from Chang Cheh and the Venom Mob, one from Lau Kar Leung

Here is the first part in a three-post series devoted to exploring the films in this set.

You can see that element of its original conception in the finished product's lavish graphic design, which incorporates an array of mind-blowing vintage poster designs drawn from several martial arts film fans' collections. However, the two authors realized they were onto something bigger and more impressive than just another coffee table book and put their writing/researching skills to the test. The result is something better than I was hoping for.
