Some personal favourites in there. BTiLC obviously, Mr Vampire and Encounters of the Spooky Kind are great comedy horror fun, and The Boxer's Omen is the wildest film I've watched (and I've seen a lot of weird and wacky movies) but The Seventh Curse isn't short of memorable scenes either!
On your recommendation, I decided to check out Boxer's Omen and wow you aren't wrong. I'm about an hour in, just needed to take a break after the third evil wizard buffet scene. +1
It keeps escalating, to the point where you realise you are grateful you didn't watch it on drugs, then you wonder if someone has slipped you some drugs until you end up worried you might have lost your mind. It's either you or the filmmaker, I have yet to figure out which.
Fists of the White Lotus is excellent, just some awesome combat sequences
