Made in Hong Kong: Volume 3 [Blu-ray]

Made in Hong Kong: Volume 3 Blu-ray brings together three wildly imaginative genre films from Hong Kong and Taiwan, newly restored by Vinegar Syndrome from supplied studio masters.

Magic of Spell continues the adventures of Peach Boy as he and his loyal companion battle the Demon King and the remaining forces of the underworld. Their journey introduces an increasingly strange collection of creatures, enemies and allies, including the thousand-year-old Ginseng Boy, in a colourful mixture of fantasy, horror and action.

The Dead and the Deadly stars Sammo Hung as Wah Li, a funerary worker whose friend suddenly turns up dead. When a mysterious pregnant woman claims to be the deceased man’s wife, Wah Li becomes caught in an increasingly bizarre mystery where the boundaries between the living and the dead begin to disappear. Scared Stiff follows best friends Halley and David as a botched encounter with criminals reveals David’s unusually powerful brainwaves, sending their buddy comedy spiralling into an unpredictable blend of science fiction and action.
