Brought this has a bit of a blind purchase and was pleasantly surprised by how the movie was. It's really got that pulpy, gritty kind of 70s feel which makes the overall movie very enjoyable. It's only about 90 minutes or so, so it moves at a great pace, and all of the main characters are quite interesting in their own ways (but Jhoon Rhee, Angela Mao and Anne Winton's performances really stand out the best).
The booklet that comes with the limited edition is one of the best that Eureka have produced too in terms of additional info. It provides a lot of context if you wanted to know more about the film. Whether limited edition or not, this would make a great addition to anyone's kung fu collection.
