The Monkey Goes West (1966) – Imprint Asia #15
Worldwide first on Blu-ray!
In the vast body of Chinese literature, there is no novel more famous than Journey To The West, and its familiar characters – from the rambunctious Monkey King to the lecherous Pigsy.
The Monkey Goes West presents a unique interpretation with a unique cast. Ho Fan plays the monk who undertakes a journey to the west to search for Buddhist scriptures. Among the creatures he encounters are Monkey (Yueh Hua), Pigsy (Peng Peng), and a damsel in distress (Diana Chang Chung-wen, nicknamed “The Most Beautiful Creature in China”). It’s the Tang Dynasty with a 1960s sensibility, and one of the more unusual costume pictures of its era.
Emperor Tai Tsung orders Tripitaka to journey west in search of sacred scriptures. After he is captured by the King of Demons, he escapes, frees the imprisoned Monkey from Five-Finger Mountain, and gains Monkey’s loyalty as they embark together on the perilous journey to the West.
1500 copies only.

Vengeance Of A Snow Girl (1971) – Imprint Asia #16
Worldwide first on Blu-ray!
Lo Wei (director of The Big Boss and Fist of Fury) joined Shaw Brothers in 1965, and helmed more than a dozen movies for the studio. This, however, was his very last Shaw Brothers film, and he shot the works with it.
He co-wrote and co-starred in the tale of a frostbitten swordswoman out for revenge on the people who killed her parents and stole the coveted Tsui Feng sword. An audience can only marvel at Li Ching’s talent as she struggles to kill her enemies and cure her hypothermia in time for the final “snow-down.”
A young girl who witnesses the murder of her parents is saved by a knight after her feet go permanently numb from standing in icy water while hiding. After ten years of martial arts training, she seeks revenge, until the son of her parent’s murderer convinces her to reconsider, offering to cure the foot ailment she has suffered since that night.
1500 copies only.

The Snake Prince (1976) – Imprint Asia #17
Worldwide first on Blu-ray!
Versatile director Lo Chen and majestic star Ti Lung teamed up to make this remarkable, unusual fantasy-horror epic.

Attracted by the sensual rain dance performed by three glorious tribeswomen of the nearby Miao Village, they set into motion a tale of romance, greed, insanity, envy, lust, murder, and tragedy.
The lovely Fanny Fen-Ni, Helen Ko, and Lin Chen-Chi lend their acting talent to a film that is both one of the director’s last, and most extraordinary.
