Streaming Sleepers: In Lau Kar Leung’s HEROES OF THE EAST, Love, Honor And Respect In Any Language
One of the finer things of late about subscribing to Well Go USA’s in-house streaming platform, Hi-YAH!, is much ado with their output of classic kung fu titles. Lau Kar Leung’s Heroes Of The East is just one of them these days, making landfall this week with Gordon Liu and Yuko Mizuno headlining the cast. The 1978 film bodes as a classic staple from the Shaw Brothers catalog and currently residing in the library of Celestial Pictures in its preservation of legendary Hong Kong hit films. Written by Ni Kuang amid his sizeable studio resumé as screenwriter, the film follows another chapter in the age-old battle of the sexes when a pre-arranged marriage between Ho Tao (Liu) and Yumiko (Mizuno) ensues a competition of hijinks, hilarity, and martial skill between Chinese and Japanese styles. Liu is as charismatic in the role of Ho Tao, as he is skilled opposite the […]

KINGDOM: RETURN OF THE GREAT GENERAL Review: Shinsuke Sato’s Latest Rages On In An Extant Tale Of High Drama And Heroic Bloodshed
Kingdom: Return Of The Great General is now streaming on Netflix in the U.S. Imaginably, if the rest of us outside of Japan got to see Shinsuke Sato’s Kingdom: Return Of The Great General, the film would have easily listed for many of us somewhere in our top favorite action titles of 2024. Interest be damned, however, the obligatory window still applies for titles like these, and now the film is finally streaming on Netflix as of Wednesday. Sato’s continued adaptation of Yasuhisa Hara’s celebrated manga-cum-anime fave re-establishes the cast of the franchise thusfar, led by Kento Yamazaki, Ryo Yoshizawa, Kanna Hashimoto, and Takao Osawa, as well as Nana Seino. Additionally, the film also brings back actors Koji Kikkawa and Oguri Shun whose characters are introduced in the outro sequences of the previous chapter, Kingdom: The Flame Of Destiny. As Ohki (Osawa) prepares to lead the Qin army into its […]
DARK MATCH Throws Down The Gory Goods In The Official Trailer!
I tried like crazy last year to catch Lowell Dean’s head-bashing ringside horror, Dark Match, while it performed for Fantasia. Alas, that never came to pass, but the film is now poised for release via Shudder in the U.S., the U.K. & Ireland, and in Australia & New Zealand on January 31. A small-time wrestling company accepts a well-paying gig in a backwoods town only to learn, too late, that the community is run by a mysterious cult leader with devious plans for their match. The official trailer is here as well and delivering all the unhinged, R-rated violence and gore you would expect from a violent tourno wrestling spectacle from the man who brought you Wolfcop and its sequel. Dark Match stars Ayisha Issa, Steven Ogg, Sara Canning, Michael Eklund, and Jonathan Cherry, and wrestling superstar Chris Jericho. Catch the bloody new trailer below, and mind your viewing surroundings […]
