Poster for the movie Mang gwai chai goon

Mang gwai chai goon (1987)

Reasonably amusing horror-comedy leans perhaps too much on slapstick and is weakened a bit by the fact that the leads aren’t all that sympathetic, but it does manage to blend humor and the spooky situations arising in a police station that had formerly been used by Japanese occupiers during World War Two. Also known as The Haunted Cop Shop. Followed by Mang gwai hok tong (The Haunted Cop Shop II)

  Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK, but not great.

Movie 487 for 2021.
