RELEASE DATE: July 19, 2022
On July 19, 2022, 88 Films is releasing the Blu-ray (Region A) for Lau Kar Leung’s 1981 kung fu film, Martial Club (aka Instructors of Death), starring Kara Wei (My Young Auntie) and Gordon Liu (The 36th Chamber of Shaolin).
Official details:
Martial Club is a fast-paced, cleverly choreographed piece of martial arts fun combining many elements that lovers of this kind of cinema will be more than appreciative of. Rival fight schools, an old master and beautifully designed set pieces tumble together in a colourfully kinaesthetic unceasing parade of flying fists and action set pieces.
This title will soon be available at The Goodie Emporium, a U.S.-based online store that currently has many Import Shaw Brothers/Golden Harvest/martial arts DVD/Blu-ray movies in-stock – with New titles being added regularly!
