Wonderful mix of slapstick goofiness, kung fu action, and horror. This movie created an entirely new genre of HK films and established Yee-Man Man as the Asian Van Helsing. Likely to be too alien to scare Western audiences, the action and folkloric anti-vampire methods should keep anyone entertained. It doesn't start off too exciting, and the time setting up the premise for the story can feel a little overdrawn, but this is a movie that tries to outdo itself with each subsequent action scene. The first one isn't too exciting, (pretty standard kung-fu fare) but by the end things have clearly gone over-the-top and the action more frenetic. You'll see just about everything being used against the main vampire, all the various tricks shown previously and then some. So what I'm saying is that it can be one of those movies that pays off for the patient.Anyways the film is tons of fun, it has multilayer plot points, a beautiful chick that our main characters get to protect, and some pretty awesome battles with hopping corpses and ghosts. I definitely recommend this to anyone that is a fan of both kung fu and 80s horror. It's cheesy and fun, reminds me a lot of films like "Return of the living dead and Night of the demons in it's style of horror. Definitely 10 stars plus.
