Walking Dead in Old House

A zombie appears in the Bao family in Hangzhou, claiming to be the ancestor of the Bao family and asking the family to move out immediately. The family is confused and calls their children and grandchildren to discuss the matter. After the departure of the old family member, Feng Lao, the vampire has become even more aggressive, and the orphaned man, Yisheng, who has been taken in by the family, is scared to death by the vampire, so the three daughters, Peifen, write a letter to ask their friend, Zhuji Jianping, to come and help them. At the request of a man in black, the family moves out, leaving only Yat-sang and Cheung Tai-hon behind.

Directed by Weibang Ma-Xu, Walking Dead in Old House leans on a strong ensemble — Tam Ying, Han Lan-Gen, Zhang Zhizhi — 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 1938.
