Eureka Entertainment to release DUEL TO THE DEATH, the action-packed kung-fu extravaganza often hailed by critics as 'the Best Swordplay Movie ever', presented on Blu-ray from a brand new 2K restoration as part of the Eureka Classics range from 20 September 2021. The first print run of 2000 copies will feature a Limited-Edition O-card Slipcase and Collector’s Booklet.

During the Ming Dynasty, as the next duel approaches, the chosen candidates are caught in the middle of a battle between Ninjas and Shaolin monks. Only a Duel to the Death will settle the countries' conflicts and stop the bloodshed.
