The Dead and the Deadly Sammo Hung Slipcase Limited Blu-ray Eureka UK Wu Ma Lam Ching-Ying
Sammo Hung's criminally unseen horror-comedy from Golden Harvest!
Introducing Eureka's Limited Edition Blu-ray release for 1982's The Dead and the Deadly. Directed by Wu Ma in perhaps his best directorial effort, and also starring Sammo Hung – The Dead and the Deadly is a must-see for both horror and action fans.
Wu Ma also stars as a man who fakes his death in order to steal his family’s funeral treasure. When the treasure is instead bequeathed to Ma’s unborn son, his co-conspirators kill him (for real this time). His vengeful spirit seeks out the help of his friend (played by Sammo Hung) and together they seek revenge on his murderers.
Also starring Lam Ching-Ying (as a Taoist priest, foreshadowing his future role in Mr. Vampire) and Cherie Chung, The Dead and the Deadly arrives for the first time ever in a brand new 2K restoration! Read on for all the extras in this edition.
IMPORTANT NOTE: An all-region Blu-ray player is required to view this movie. Standard U.S. Blu-ray players will NOT read Region B discs. If you're looking for a reliable all-region player, we've got you covered!
