Distinguished by his penchant for bloodshed and a thematic concentration on the bonds of brotherhood and masculine sacrifice, Chang Cheh is one of the most prolific and accomplished directors ever to emerge from the Hong Kong film industry. Often hailed as the Godfather of Hong Kong cinema, he enjoyed a career spanning six decades and worked in a multitude of genres, from Chinese opera to kung fu films via wuxia pian, historical epics and tales of the supernatural.

Presented here are ten films that reveal the range and versatility of Changs career as a filmmaker. Traditional wuxia pian is represented by King Eagle, Trail of the Broken Bladeand Wandering Swordsman; choreographed by Lau Kar-leung, Men from the Monasteryand Shaolin Martial Artsare both drawn from Changs Shaolin cycle, included here alongside New Shaolin Boxers; Iron Bodyguard, released at the dawn of the kung fu era, is representative of changing trends in Hong Kong cinema; and some of Changs more esoteric work is represented by the opera film The Fantastic Magic Babyand the supernatural fantasy The Weird Man. Also included is the anthology film Trilogy of Swordsmanship, to which Chang contributed a segment alongside his contemporaries Yueh Feng and Cheng Kang.

All produced during Chang Chehs tenure at Shaw Brothers, these ten films are a testament to the directors distinct aesthetic style and his recurring thematic preoccupations. Eureka Classics is proud to present this selection of Changs work for the first time on Blu-ray in the UK.
