I'll step up, but I'm not rating them or numbering them because my tastes change about every 20 minutes or so.
Off the top of my head though, these are good ones to start with (suggestions limited to R1 releases that are easy to get):
36th Chamber Of Shaolin
One Armed Swordsman
5 Deadly Venoms
Return Of The 5 Deadly Venoms
Come Drink With Me
Heroes Two
The Master
Bastard Swordsman
5 Element Ninjas
Consider these ones gateway drugs.
There's way more to the Shaw catalogue than just kung fu though, like Mike says. I love their horror films and they made some great sexploitation pictures and crime films too.
You should also see Vengeance, but it's never been released on DVD in R1 and the R3 is out of print. You can find it though if you look for it.
