Trash Film DebaucheryThe Boxer's OmenThe TrylonWed Sep 22 7:30(1983, Chih-Hung Kuei, DVD, 99min) A Shaw Bros classic. The Boxer's Omen is a guaranteed face melting martial arts showdown between good and evil, demon and priest, wizard and ghost. While in Thailand to avenge his brother who was crippled in a fight with a corrupt Thai boxer, a man gets caught up in a web of fate, Buddhism and black magic. The Boxer's Omen showcases pulse pounding action scenes featuring some of the most visually haunting and eye ball teorrizing special effect sequences ever committed to film. The Boxer's omen will make you gasp, it will make you howl, it will make your brain turn to glow in the dark jelly. |

Trash Film DebaucheryThe Dead and the DeadlyThe TrylonWed Oct 27 7:30(1982, Ma Wu, DVD, 97min) While the most famous “hopping” vampire film ever made is still Mr. Vampire (yes, hopping—in China, vampires literally hop around), this 1982 spooky ghost busting classic came earlier. A vehicle for moon-faced martial arts favorite Sammo Hung, and the uni-browed Lam Ching Ying, Hung plays a naive simpleton who participates in a complex scheme to commit fraud by pretending that his friend is dead. All goes well until fellow conspirators murder said friend for real, causing an unquiet spirit to seek revenge via zany mystical martial arts action. Only slightly more mature than your average 80's saturday morning cartoon. this turbo-charged horror comedy is a perfect example of crude and bizarre world of 80 supernatural kung fu cinema. |

Trash Film DebaucheryHaunted Cop ShopThe TrylonWed Nov 24 7:30(1987, Jeffrey Lau, DVD) Before he hit the big time with Chungking Express, acclaimed art house director Wong Kar-Wai produced this knockabout scream-fest, starring a young Jacky Cheung who went on to star in most of Wong’s biggest films. It’s the first in a series of “spooky police” films. This case pits a precinct against a horde of vampire foes on the day of “The Feast of the Hungry Ghosts”. Surprisingly creepy, often hilarious, and sometimes wildly tasteless, this 1987 oddity contains lots of exorcisms, acrobatic feats and a grisly game of mahjong. Haunted Cop Shop is a strange brew that manages to be scary and hilarious at the same time. |
