Summary: Entertaining Lam Ching Ying vampire movie
This is one of the better Lam Ching Ying vampire movies made in the early 90's, along with Skin Stripperess, Crazy Safari, and Ultimate Vampire. The story and special effects are wild and Lam is at his Taoist Wizard best, doing one Taoist ritual and magic trick after another. The beautiful Michiko Nishikawa playing an evil Japanese sorceress and always useful Billy Chow, playing her gay sidekick make things more interesting. The English dub is witty great as usual for a Vaughn "Savidge" Savido English dub, using the folks that dubbed the Thunder Ninja Kids movies, which makes the movie more fun to watch. Definately worth a viewing! My only complaint is that the movie could have been a little longer. I just need as much Lam Ching Ying as possible in a vampire movie, and this movie was just a little too short for a Lam Ching Ying vampire movie and Lam was a supporting actor than a lead, but there are just too many redeeming qualities in this movie that make me forgive this setback, as this movie is loaded with Taoist magic and Japanese counter magic. 4/5
