This Saturday, 36 Cinema is relaunching with a screening of the 1978 martial arts masterpiece “Heroes of the East”, with live commentary by the RZA! This poster was specially made to honor the film and our one-of-a-kind live event. Artwork by Robert P. “Kung Fu Bob” O'Brien
Heroes of the East (aka Shaolin Challenges Ninja) (1978) Gordon Liu stars as a Chinese kung fu student who weds a Japanese woman (Yuka Mizuno) who turns out to be a martial artist as well. When he accidentally insults her family, he's forced to duel seven Japanese martial arts masters, who each specialize in a different style, to prove how good his kung fu really is. Directed by the great Lau Kar Leung (36th Chamber of Shaolin), this Shaw Brothers classic is one of the greatest kung fu movies of all time!
Live commentary provided by RZA and Dan Halsted. Viewers will be able to type in questions during the show.
We are also offering a limited edition version of the poster signed by the RZA himself. Only 36 available, get yours before it's gone!
