Eureka in the UK has announced the release of the cult martial arts films starring Cynthia Rothrock, China Obrien parts 1 and 2 onto 4K UHD and Blu-ray.
In China O’Brien, city cop and formidable martial artist Lori China O’Brien (Rothrock) is forced to resign from the force and return home to a small Utah town after her involvement in an accidental death. But upon arrival in Beaver Creek, she finds that her lawman father Sheriff John O’Brien (David Blackwell) is desperately trying to bring down local crime boss Edwin Sommers (Steven Kerby), and it isn’t long before she steps into the fray. Then, in China O’Brien II, Lori must protect her hometown again when it becomes a hideout for a dangerous fugitive: the escaped drug lord Charlie Baskin (Harlow Marks).
Directed by Richard Clouse, the celebrated director of Enter the Dragon and Game of Death, the China O’Brien films firmly established Cynthia Rothrock as an International action star following a successful string of hits in Hong Kong.
