    Hong Kong Kung Fu Movies List And More!

    Last updated 5-1-02

    Here are my "NEW WAVE" Hong Kong Kung Fu Movies. I'm very open to trades so email me!

    Picture quality is on a scale from 1-10. 7-9 is good to excellent.

    A 10 would be a perfect picture tape or an original source tape/dvd/laser disk. I'm no expert.

    though. : )
