Imprint Asia Bundle Pack - June 2026

Chinese cinema would not be the same without the enormous impact of writer and director King Hu. Hu propelled wuxia films into mainstream consciousness by combining his passion for traditional Peking opera and Japanese samurai cinema, ushering in a new era of action filmmaking throughout the 60s and 70s and revolutionising the landscape of genre film for decades to come.

Imprint Asia is thrilled to celebrate the transformative work of King Hu with two volumes exploring the legacy and influence of his extensive filmography. In this first volume, go on a journey of fantasy, folklore, and supernatural spectacle with six Hong Kong and Taiwanese classics:

• Sons of Good Earth (1965) - Blu-ray


• Come Drink With Me (1966) - 4K UHD & Blu-ray


• Dragon Inn (1967) - 4K UHD & Blu-ray


• Four Moods (1970) - Blu-ray


• A Touch Of Zen (1971) - 4K UHD & Blu-ray


• The Fate of Lee Khan (1973) - Blu-ray

Golden Princess wuxia classics Swordsman (1990), Swordsman II (1992), and Swordsman III: The East Is Red (1993) join the Imprint Asia collection!

All meticulously restored from the original 35mm negatives, the 1990 original comes to 4K UHD and Blu-ray, with the two sequels on Blu-ray, with every shining blade and flying punch looking better than ever before.

The thirtieth and final film from legendary director Akira Kurosawa joins the Imprint Asia collection, a moving, thought-provoking drama based on the life of academic and author Hyakken Uchida.

In postwar Tokyo, beloved writer-professor Hyakken Uchida retires and is buoyed through hardship by the fierce devotion of his former students. Told in warm, gently comic vignettes, Kurosawa’s farewell celebrates aging, friendship, and the sustaining ritual of teacher and pupils refusing to say goodbye.
