From the legendary Lau Kar-leung (The Spiritual Boxer; Eight Diagram Pole Fighter) comes one of his finest - and wildest - rides, following a pair of very special undertakers who transport dead bodies by magical means. But their latest trip is proving tricky; it's bad enough that a strong-willed young woman has invited herself along for the ride but, even more awkwardly, one of the corpses might not actually be dead... Pretty much inventing the kung fu horror-comedy, and a huge influence on later films like Encounter of the Spooky Kind and Mr. Vampire, The Shadow Boxing stars Gordon 'Kill Bill' Liu and features the sort of action only the great Lau could serve up. 88 Films are delighted to unleash this Hong Kong classic on blu-ray.

Press Quotes

Lau Kar Leung's career as a director and choreographer took some unique turns during his time with the Shaw Brothers and one of the more interesting twists of style comes in the form of The Shadow Boxing

     —Matt Reifschneider, Blood Brothers

A pioneer of the Chinese Vampire genre

     —Tatu Piispanen, Elitisti

Explodes in beautifully crafted, precise Lau Kar-Leung style, but the addition of Lau's unique Jiangshi Fist style creates fights that are unlike anything in the Hong Kong industry at the time

     —Will Kouf, Silver Emulsion

Acclaimed director Liu Chia-liang directs his brothers Gordon Liu Chia-hui and Liu Chia-yung in a wild and crazy ghostly film in this heralded sequel to The Spiritual Boxer.

     —AV Club
