Overview
About Us:

Shaw Brothers Studio

The titles say it all: Notorious Eight, Death Duel, Return of the Sentimental Swordsman, Return of the Bastard Swordsman, The Fake Ghost Catchers. It's no use; just surrender. You're now under the hypnotic spell of Hong Kong cinema, where the action is fast and furious, gravity is irrelevant, and kung fu fighting of the highest order and spectacle reigns supreme.

Long before Jackie Chan, John Woo, Chow Yun Fat or Quentin Tarantino, there were the Shaw Brothers, cranking out picture after picture for over 25 years — 760 films in all, including melodramas and comedies. But the bulk of their work and their most notable and lasting contribution to film history, the one that has enraptured countless fans the world over since the early 1960s, is the martial arts movie.

Forever changing the way action is presented on screen, Shaw films are filled with common-man heroes fighting elegantly and effectively against impossible odds, twisting, spinning, kicking and chopping their way to hard-fought, glorious victory.

When the Shaw Brothers got out of the movie business in 1984, they inexplicably locked away their entire library of films. It wasn't until 2002, when they struck a deal with Celestial to redistribute the movies, that the vault was reopened. Some Shaw Brothers titles are still difficult to obtain, but not to worry. With Jaman, dozens of these action gems are just a click away.
