Two statues from 500 years past are unearthed and brought to HongKong for an exhibition. The statues are in fact the bodies of two policemen who were given the ability to live forever by a Taoist Priest in an attempt to destroy an evil Bat Queen.

Summary: NULL

A clever, cut-rate parody of the Chinese Ghost Story flicks, with a dash of Evil Dead 2 mixed in! Five centuries ago, two hapless cops (Feng Cui-Fan and Wan Xin-Liang) join forces with Master Thunderbolt to destroy a murderous, bloodsucking witch (He Mei-Wei). However, the cops accidentally swallow pills that causes their bodies to freeze until the present, where they continue their chase. I'll never forget the sight of those two cops chasing after the vampiress while riding bicycles and disguised in Garfield suits.

(3/4)
