About The Witch Haunts the Haunted Gate
Qiu Ying is a jealous dancer. Although she has been married for more than ten years, she still has a lot of control over her husband's every move. One day, Qiu Ying saw her husband chatting with a dancer and became so jealous that she argued with her husband and then killed him by mistake. She was about to run away, but she entered a park by mistake, and was so frightened by the murals of the Ten Emperor's Palace and the Nine Hells that she ran home. After returning home, Qiu Ying feels more and more uneasy and has to take sleeping pills to get some sleep. During her sleep, Qiu Ying dreams that she is in the underworld and witnesses all kinds of tortures in the hell. After waking up, Qiu Ying is deeply condemned by her conscience and decides to confess and turn herself in.
Directed by Wong Hang, The Witch Haunts the Haunted Gate leans on a strong ensemble — Lam Mui-Mui, 郭秀珍, 袁龍 — 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 1949.
