Heroes Shed No Tears, is a Vietnam set flick directed by John Woo. filmed in 1984/5, but wasn't released until 1986 after Woo had the mega-hit A Better Tomorrow - the film that made Chow Yun-fat an internationally known star.

plot: small group of war veterans are sent into Vietnam, to capture a drugs lord, then escort him out. in return they'll receive a reward & green cards allowing them to emigrate to America. Eddy Ko stars as the hero & late Hong Kong movie star Lam Ching-ying plays an arsey Vietnam soldier.

Snake In The Monkey's Shadow (was on Movies 4 Men in the U.K.) old school dubbed kung fu flick, made in the wake of Jackie Chan box office hits Drunken Master & Snake In The Eagle's Shadow in the late 70's, using elements from both these movies to cash in on the era's trend. i didn't have high hopes, but turned out far better than i thought it would be

Ok, I just finished The Mist (the new Stephen King adaptation film) and it is so...wow. That's all I can think to say of it, just "wow". If you haven't seen it, I suggest you check it out. It has some gory bits, and might make you jump at times, but it's a really great movie. The ending was a total shock to me...
