Sammo Hung plays Courageous Cheung, a cuckolded husband who faces a series of supernatural challenges from his wife's wealthy lover. First, Cheung must survive a night in a house haunted by a bloodthirsty vampire. From there, things just get worse, and more comical. For those unfamiliar with the Chinese horror genre, the film is a wild ride through the supernatural mythology and folklore of China: hopping corpses, supernatural possession by a monkey god, the gratuitous sacrifice of a chicken, and lots of chanting by Taoist priests. For Chinese viewers in the early 1980s, the film was unusual in other ways: director Sammo Hung mixed comedy, martial arts, and supernatural horror into this bouillabaise of a film, establishing the genre of kung-fu horror comedy...
