PULSE-POUNDING THRILLER
SHOCK WAVE
China’s #1 Box Office Hit Explodes onto Blu-ray™ & Digital
January 2
“Takes no prisoners when it comes to delivering high-octane action”
– The Star
Blockbuster star Andy Lau (The Great Wall, House of Flying Daggers), one of Hong Kong’s most commercially successful actors ever, headlines the edge-of-seat thriller SHOCK WAVE, arriving on Blu-ray™ & Digital January 2 from Cinedigm (NASDAQ: CIDM) and Crimson Forest Films.
Written and directed by Herman Yau (IP Man: The Legend Is Born), with both Yau and Lau as producers, the spellbinding action film captured the #1 box office spot in China and Hong Kong when it hit theaters earlier this year. With a $23 million budget, SHOCK WAVE has become Hong Kong’s second-highest grossing domestic film of 2017 and was celebrated as “disarmingly entertaining” by The Hollywood Reporter.
Set on the busy streets of Hong Kong, Lau stars as Cheung Choi-san, a bomb disposal expert working to protect his city from attack. When a terrorist who specializes in explosives, Hung Kai-pang (Jiang Wu, A Touch of Sin), takes hold of the busy Cross-Harbor Tunnel, he threatens to kill hostages if his demands are not met.
The third collaboration between Yah and Lau, SHOCK WAVE holds an 80% score on Rotten Tomatoes and is praised for its high-octane drama that put Lau in a 70-pound bomb disposal suit during filming. The Blu-ray™ + DVD Combo includes an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film, including an interview with Lau.
