TTT, any luck yet? You mean nobody collects good kung fu movies on this board?

The only one I've ever seen him in is "Magnificent Butcher"
I think it's his last picture, and he only has a supporting role, but he gets a great scene and his talent and physicality is very obvious.
I think his black and white two and three reelers are pretty rare.

I would be interested in seeing those b/w films, myself. Shek Kin stars in quite a few of them. He usually plays the "villain from the North" from what I've heard. Some of them even feature him wearing an iron claw for a hand. (sound familiar?) Gini (or is it Lily?) Lau is featured in a few as well. TVB may be the best bet because supposedly those old films still get played on late night tv in Hong Kong.
There is a VCD in Chinatown that has recently come out. It is the old black and white tv series I believe you are looking for. I picked it up for 4 bucks. Has 2 cds inside. Not sure how many episodes because I only got a chance to see a few minutes of it.
If you want I can try and pick up another one and send it to you.
