Movie Description
Sammo Hung plays Courageous Cheung, a cuckolded husband who faces a series of supernatural challenges from his wife's wealthy lover. First, Cheung must survive a night in a house haunted by a bloodthirsty vampire. From there, things just get worse--and more comical. For those unfamiliar with the Chinese horror genre, the film is a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride through the supernatural mythology and folklore of China: Hopping corpses, supernatural possession by a monkey god, the gratuitous sacrifice of a chicken, and lots of chanting by Taoist priests will all seem pretty trippy. For Chinese viewers in the early 1980s, the film was unusual in other ways: Director Sammo Hung mixed comedy, martial arts, and supernatural horror into this bouillabaise of a film, establishing the genre of kung-fu horror comedy. Several films in the genre followed, including the popular MR. VAMPIRE series and many films with the word "spooky" in their titles, including Hung's SPOOKY, SPOOKY and ENCOUNTERS OF THE SPOOKY KIND 2, a sequel in name only.

ENCOUNTERS OF THE SPOOKY KIND grossed nearly $5.7 million at the Hong Kong box office, making it the sixth highest grossing film of 1981 in Hong Kong.

According to MONDO MACABRO, the Chinese hopping corpse stems from tales of Taoist priests who would reanimate the dead to lead them to their ancestral burial grounds. The corpses hopped because the priests tied their feet together and rang bells, to warn people of their approach. The hopping corpse was featured in such films as MOVING CORPSE IN THE OLD HOUSE (1939) and THE CORPSE DRIVERS OF XIANGXI (1957).

The Chinese title of the film literally means "ghost strikes ghost."
