When a lustful scholar’s marriage night proves to be disappointing, he goes to extreme lengths to upgrade his womanizing game like never before. This erotic comedy proved to be one of the biggest blockbusters in the history of “Category III” – adults only – films, and a notorious cult hit on home video in the United States.

From the director of the legendary Riki-Oh: The Story Of Ricky comes a tale about three beautiful spirits who have taken human form. Falling for the charms of a handsome but seemingly hapless scholar, the trio set out to seduce the young man by any means necessary — only to find there’s more to him than meets the eye.
EROTIC GHOST STORY II (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Cantonese DTS-HD Master Audio Mono / 98 min.)

A betrothed young man is hopelessly in love with the image of a woman in a portrait and crosses the barrier between the human and spirit world to find her. But a demon isn’t prepared to let him achieve his romantic quest … or return to the land of the living.
DOCTOR VAMPIRE (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Cantonese & Mandarin DTS-HD Master Audio Mono / 99 min.)
A doctor goes abroad to England and takes one major wrong turn when he finds himself in a brothel that doubles as a feeding spot for vampires. Escaping back to Hong Kong — and now carrying vampiric traits himself — the doctor must fend off the still-hungry vamps and their sinister master.
ROBOTRIX (1080p High-Definition Widescreen (1.85:1) / Cantonese & English Dub DTS-HD Master Audio Mono / 102 min.)

Watch the films’ Trailers below, with the exception of Doctor Vampire:
We’ll keep you updated on this upcoming release as we learn more.
It’s about freakin’ time. What took a project like this so long to materialise. Shaw Brothers aren’t the only big dawgs in town. I want to see Chang Yee, Nora Mao, James Tien and Wang Yu’s Golden Harvest blockbusters as well !!!!!!
Totally. Long overdue. I hope they get some lesser known classics in there and not the same titles we recently received from Eureka, etc.
Bring them on
Are they going to re-release Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Jet Li movies for the 87th time? Or something more unknown and rare like Yuen Biao’s Rosa?
Ooo get you, what you after, a three ninjas boxset?
🙂

I hope Tiger of the Northland is on it
I hope Tiger of the Northland is on it that would be awesome
i would like to see them release the rank video uk release version of fist of fury
Thats the one with the text on black screen for the opening title sequence? That on the Arrow Bruce Lee boxset
its the version uncut without the singing in the end
‘Doctor Vampire’ finally, the movie that HK cinema fans have been waiting for to hit Blu-ray since forever. I’ll be purchasing the boxset purely for that title.
This boxset needs to be bundled with a pack of aloe vera tissues and 150ml of coconut oil
Any word on whether or not the second box is going to be Category III too? Really want to see Her Vengeance (1988), Love To Kill (1993), Daughters Of Darkness (1993), Naked Killer (1994) and The Eternal Evil Of Asia (1995) get released.
A worthy wish list, but the only one of those eligible for the second box would be ‘Her Vengeance’ since it was produced by Golden Harvest.
