A slapstick Kung-Fu film featuring hopping vampires and Taoist Voodoo mysticism. Hung is known for his ability to mix great action sequences with humor.
The main character’s wife is having an affair, so in order to get him out of the picture a black magic priest is employed to take care of him. Lot’s of great fight scenes, this film is a classic for all ages.

Video Vengeance!
Movie night at Space 1026!
Friday (10/30) @ 8pm
We will be having a screening of “Boxer’s Omen” – a Shaw Brothers production kung-fu horror film:
Mo (Boxer’s Omen) – 1983
Total running time: 1 hour 43 minutes
This movie is about a kickboxer who seeks revenge for his brother in a kickboxing match only to get involved in an epic battle between mystic Buddhist powers and Voodoo cult forces.
Be prepared for plenty of gore and cheesy effects, but the most surprising thing about this film are also some pretty visually stunning scenes. I would say if you ever wanted to watch a film that was a combination of Holy Mountain and Evil Dead in a kung-fu film, this would be it.
So come on by Friday night and there will be popcorn and a second film to be announced.
