Yin ji

The seventh month of the lunar calendar, and the gates of hell open to let out the ghosts of the dead. Chun Sing (Billy Chong) is visited by his deceased father, who tells the young man that his enemy is a priest who commands the dark forces of black magic. Luckily, Chun Sing gets help from a magic book, a group of friendly ghosts - and a house full of hookers...

This heady mix of Kung fu and horror features Billy Chong, who, I think, is quite underrated and fights better than Jackie Chan. Pity these type of films were becoming passé by the early 80's, because Chong is really good. However, after an interesting 16 minutes, the film rarely picks up in pace, is tedious between the fights, which are really good. It's a fairly weak film. The fights are an eye grabber, though. The story idea is ok, but it was silly and tacky most of the time. The hearts chasing the bad guy was a good idea, however it's effectiveness was let down by the poor special FX.
