Mr. Vampire II

The first of the numerous sequels to follow in the wake of the blockbuster success of MR. VAMPIRE puts a fresh twist on the hopping-vampire mythology by bringing the bounding baddies into the present day. Here, supernatural hijinks ensue when an archaeologist inadvertently awakens an ancient vampire family, sending the revivified mom, dad, and son on a rip-roaring rampage—with much hilarity provided by the epic, slow-motion centerpiece fight sequence. Lam Ching-Ying returns as the chief vampire slayer, alongside a cast that includes HK cinema greats Yuen Biao and James Tien.
