Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of the jiangshi (hopping vampire) craze that exploded after 1985's Mr. Vampire, though this 1984 entry was actually rushing to capitalize early.
Chin Yuet-Sang directed himself as the Wandering Ghost while also staging the fight choreography—absolute multihyphenate madness.
