There are some great movies in this list :D

My initial suggestions are:

Magnificent Butcher (Sammo in his prime)

Prodigal Son (Yuen B in his prime, with Sammo :) )

Encounters of the Spooky Kind (My fav)

The Victim (Beardy, Chang Yi &... Sammo!)

The Scorpion King (Awesome Pops film. Sonny!!!!!!!!!)

Invincible Armour (Another great film with the Silver Fox aka Hwang Jang Lee)

If you're in the mood for a kung fu flick right now, I recommend
