About Encounters of the Spooky Kind II
Impoverished teahouse worker (and martial-arts student) Abao is engaged to his boss' daughter, Little Chu, and fights to protect her from the lecherous advances of the wealthy but repulsive Master Shi. The two men's romantic rivalry escalates into full-scale supernatural warfare after Shi enlists the aid of a wicked sorcerer, and Abao encounters a benevolent female ghost.
Directed by Ricky Lau, Encounters of the Spooky Kind II leans on a strong ensemble — Sammo Hung Kam-Bo, Lam Ching-Ying, Mimi Kung Chi-Yan — 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 action titles of 1990.
