Now available is 88 Films’ Deluxe Collector’s Edition Blu-ray (Region B) for Stephen Chow’s Fight Back to School Trilogy, which includes 1991’s Fight Back to School, 1992’s Fight Back to School II and 1993’s Fight Back to School III. The set will soon be available to you from Goodie Emporium.
Official details:
Before he wowed the world with Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle, Stephen Chow was Hong Kong’s best kept – and funniest – secret, and the Fight Back to School trilogy sees him at his hilarious best.
Here he’s Star Chow, the toughest cop on the force… until some over-zealous police-work takes his career in a different direction: he’s sent under-cover at a school. There he finds there are worse things than battling triads, like homework, maths tests and falling in love with your teacher.
And once he’s solved that case, he’s back undercover in the sequels, demonstrating that he should have paid more attention in his lessons. This is the first time all three films have been released together on blu-ray, and 88 Films are thrilled to present the world premier of this classic trilogy of Cantonese comedy.
