Sword Master | Blu-ray & DVD (Well Go USA)
Today’s Deal on Fire is the Blu-ray for Derek Yee’s Sword Master (read our review). The film is a remake of Chor Yuen’s Death Duel, a 1977 Shaw Brothers film that Yee starred in during the height of his acting career.
In this wuxia epic, a swordsman is haunted by the destructive impact his deadly talents have on others. Weary of the bloodshed from the martial arts world, he banishes himself to the humble life a vagrant, wandering the fringes of society. But his violent past refuses to let him go quietly. The swordsman must regain the ability to wield his sword and fight those disrupting the peace he so desperately craves.
As with the original, the remake is an adaptation of Ku Lung’s Third Master’s Sword (literal title). The film is produced by Tsui Hark (Taking of Tiger Mountain) and stars Kenny Lin Geng-Xin (Young Detective Dee: Rise of the Sea Dragon Sea Dragon), Peter Ho Yun-Tung (The Monkey King), Jiang Yi-Yan (The Bullet Vanishes) and Jiang Meng-Jie (Kung Fu Man).

This looks pretty good. Well Go USA keeps killing it with the Asian releases.
