About The Spooky Family
Hung Ping is a vampire buster in early 20th century China. He shares his home with his fortune teller wife, his dim-witted son, his beautiful daughter Fa and their ghost servant. We follow Hung on his exploits as he tries to capture the copper vampire, a bloodthirsty demon that brings misfortune to whomever controls him.
Directed by Chin Yuet-Sang, The Spooky Family leans on a strong ensemble — Kent Cheng Jak-Si, Nina Li Chi, Pauline Wong — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1990.
