Movie Ad of the Week: "Sir Run Run Shaw Kung-Fu Festival" (1983)

In late 1983, World Northal Corp. had so many Shaw Brothers movies on their release schedule that the Movieland theater in Times Square was able to run a five-week "Sir Run Run Shaw Kung-Fu Festival"
(November 9 - December 13) to help clear the slate so the films could be included in the company's latest TV syndication package. Here's what was shown...

DYNASTY OF BLOOD
a.k.a. CI MA / BLOOD BROTHERS (1973)

THE INVINCIBLE ONE
a.k.a. HONG QUAN XIAO ZI / DISCIPLES OF SHAOLIN (1975)

KUNG FU WARLORDS PART II
a.k.a. SHE DIAO YING XIONG CHUAN XU JI / BRAVE ARCHER 2 (1978)

THE DEADLY MANTIS
a.k.a. TANG LANG / SHAOLIN MANTIS (1978)

SUPER NINJAS
a.k.a. REN ZNE WU DI / FIVE ELEMENT NINJA (1982)

By the second week, THE KUNG FU INSTRUCTOR/JIAO TOU (1979) had replaced KUNG FU WARLORDS PART II, which kept its November 23 release date but premiered instead at the Empire Theater on 42nd Street, where it was paired with the first KUNG FU WARLORDS.
