Just received this yesterday. I have three of the four films on DVD (on a DVDr) and Five Venoms of course on Blu Ray already. I might have done all the Shaolin movies together, but this is a great set. I am already watching Shaolin Temple, since that was the one I wanted an upgrade of the most. That was lousy sentence structure, but you know what I mean. Suffice it to say, this set is stunning. It is loaded with extras, I mean, it is from Arrow, so that is to be expected. It has all the English dubs and some of the English opening credit scenes. I love their product, I will tell you what. I couldn't tell you which company is best, Kino-Lorber or Arrow, but damn I am glad to have both of them around. They have better extras on their discs than most of the big popular movies and companies ever do. They sure know their audience, I'll tell you what.These are probably four of the most popular Chang Cheh movies. It is nice to see The Crippled Avengers title, rather than the misleading Return of the Five Deadly Venoms. I hope they also have the Mortal Combat US title as well for that one. That is my least favorite of the bunch, and it is still pretty great. Now I just have to find good homes for the DVDs.
