English dubs

Megastar features english dubs on some of their titles, unfortunately I couldn't tell you all of the titles that do, though Iron Monkey, Beast Cops, and Heroes Shed No Tears jump to mind. Taiseng also provides english dubs on some of their domestic releases (ie: their non-imported titles that they resell).

If you can play Region 2 DVDs you should like the HKL DVDs. They've got lots of Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee, Jet Li, and more. Almost all of them have English dubs. Check out their site here: http://www.hongkonglegends.co.uk . They make some of the best DVDs I own.

English Language - YES!

Actually, there are several HK DVDs with English language audio tracks. Among them are:

Enter The Eagles [~90% English Audio]
Heroes Shed No Tears
Iron Monkey
Last Hurrah For Chivalry
Lunch With Charles
Magnificent Butcher
Mr. Vampire
The Story Of Ricky
Wheels On Meals [Uncut Version]
Who Am I?

You can see a list of all films with English Audio at HKFlix HERE.

Tai Seng's version of The Heroic Trio has an English dialogue track, as does its new release, The Duel. Most Columbia TriStar releases of HK movies have at least a Cantonese and English dialogue track. Meltdown (formerly HIgh Risk) only has an English track. Some HK movies have very bad English dubbing. Gorgeous is a good example.
If Muldoon ever changes his mind and restarts his asiandvdguide.com website, you will all the infomation you need in one site. As previously posted, Hong Kong Legends produces the best versions of HK DVDs, but their DVDs are R2 and PAL.
