A real stroke of genius to cast William Shatner in #Columbo as an egomaniacal actor who's also a notorious ham.
Peter Falk and William Shatner in Columbo.

OLD KUNG FU MASTER was a massive project for us. Taking a nearly unusable print and turned it into what you see in the final photo. You can get a copy of this nearly extinct film here: www.terror-vision.com/store/an-old... Also the first time ever in its OAR. #SupportFilmRestoration
