Master of the Flying Guillotine
Killer Priest
Mystery Of Chessboxing
Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang 2
Raiders of the Wu-Tang
Fearless Hyena 1 & 2
Faster Blade, Poisonous Dart
...really, anything in the Wu-Tang series

I gave all my Wu-Tang VHS tapes away to a friend 4 years ago. I miss them every day.

Wu Tang Series is hit or miss, you have bonafide classics like Mystery of Chessboxing but also incomprehensible shit like Miracle Fighters and just plain mediore Faster Blade Poisonous Darts. If you can get the cheap VHS then it's not a big deal and worth the risk, but if you're buying the dvds you should look it up before buying.

Aside from that, some classics you can't fuck with:

Classic kung-fu (all starring Gordon Liu/Master Killer):

Fist of the White Lotus (aka White lotus cult)
8 Diagram Pole Fighter
Shaolin & Wu-tang (the movie repeatedly sampled on Enter the Wu)
36th Chamber of Shaolin (aka Master Killer),
Desciples of 36 Chambers,
Legendary Weapons of China (aka 18 Weapons of China)

Venoms:

Kid with the Golden Arm
Killer Army (aka Killa Army)
Crippled Avengers

Random old-school (pre-90's):

7 Grandmasters
Prodigal Son (arguably the best Kung Fu movie ever made)
Victim
3 Evil Masters
Warriors II
Martial Arts of the Shaolin temple
Duel to the Death
Last Hurrah for Chivalry
The Magic Blade

New School (post 1990, heavy wirework)

Iron Monkey
Fist of Legend
Twin Warriors (aka Tai Chi Master)
Once Upon a Time in China
Swordsman II
Tai-chi Master (the one WITHOUT Jet Li)

I'm not doing any Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee out of personal preferences
