1981 • Hong Kong • Directed by Kuei Chih-Hung

In America, it’s the title of a beloved supernatural sitcom. But in Hong Kong, it’s the name of a stunning horror film from the director who also helmed the equally riveting Hex. This time, however, the stakes are even higher and the gruesome goings-on even more memorable. It all starts when a noble police detective starts investigating a child killer’s claims of an evil spell, then it doesn’t let up until the final, bloated, maggot-ridden cadaver falls. This is the Mandarin version.
