Could be but who knows?
Details about audio and subs for (upcoming) Italian releases are often not correct.
It's a real struggle sometimes to find the correct info.

Yes, it's the same.

Didn't even know these were out so I'll just post them here....
Overall these HK blus by Vicol are getting very good reviews by fans (and seems most of them are region free, better check on their site before buying though (BLU-RAY | 域高娛樂有限公司 (Vicol Entertainment Limited) click "older posts" for more blus/region info can be found at the bottom of the page of the selected blu)

"Hong-Kong film from the 80's... on Blu-Ray... and yet not an upscale.
What is this sorcery?"

"Finally, HK-stuff in HD with grain. About time."

"Feels like a dream come true, to see older HK movies properly transferred to HD."

A little taster here (Fight Back to School series with caps):http://www.post76.com/x2/forum.php?m...extra=page%3D1

Release dates April-May 2015.

Black Vengeance = Rich and Famous II = Tragic Hero btw.

Speaking of HK films, where the hell are the blus of Seeding of a Ghost, The Boxer's Omen, Bewitched, The Rape After, Corpse Mania, The Seventh Curse etc.?

I think Celestial/IVL still holds the rights to the Shaw titles on bd as they are busy releasing some newer Shaw titles on HK blus?
Anyway most of these are nowadays hard to find on dvd and there's no (English friendly) blus announced for the near future it seems...

Some Shaw horror titles like Corpse Mania only even got a HK vcd release or no release at all...luckily Image released Corpse Mania (and The Boxer's Omen, also only on HK vcd / Black Magic 2, never released by Celestial!) on dvd in the US.

Black Magic was released on blu in Germany though (not English friendly)!

I have Bewitched The Boxer's Omen, Seeding of a Ghost, Corpse Mania, Black Magic, Black Magic 2, Devil Fetus on DVD. Would love to have them in HD too
