NR
104 min.

Shout! Studios and GKIDS present HONG KONG CINEMA CLASSICS (HKCC), a retrospective of essential titles produced in the creative epicenter of Hong Kong, newly scanned in 4K and restored from original camera elements. Featuring works from directors John Woo, Tsui Hark, Ringo Lam, and Ching Siu-tung, these stories of cops and criminals, Chinese opera, and supernatural forces showcase one of the most explosively inventive eras in modern filmmaking.

In this installment of a phenomenal saga of the supernatural, four young people are caught in a tug-o-war of evil between an Imperial Wizard and a corrupt General. A wandering scholar (Leslie Cheung), still mourning the loss of his ghostly love, escapes wrongful imprisonment and falls for a rebellious woman (Joey Wang). Meanwhile, an evil monster threatens to destroy all hopes of love unless a maniacal Taoist ghostbuster (Jacky Cheung) can stop it first! Outrageous special effects galore.
