The Haunted Cop Shop1987
Directed by Jeffrey Lau Chun-Wai
The premise
During the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, the soldiers had a clubhouse, where, on V-J Day, they committed seppuku. Now it's a police station, and its inhabitants burn dolls to keep the souls at peace. However, tonight is the Ghost Festival, when ghosts are allowed one night's leave, and the Colonel has risen, turning those he bites into vampires.
Horror Vault's take
A Hong Kong police station built on the site of a wartime Japanese officers' club becomes ground zero for supernatural mayhem when the Ghost Festival unleashes its long-dead inhabitants. An imperial colonel stalks the precinct's corridors, and anyone unlucky enough to cross his path risks joining the ranks of the undead. Equal parts slapstick and spookhouse, this late-80s Hong Kong horror-comedy throws rookie cops and bumbling veterans into a night they won't soon forget. It's a wild, energetic ride that leans hard into laughs without completely abandoning its creepy premise.
