TIL the word "asemic".... and why I could never make out what was written in those spells 😄

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

And thanks @ryan for sharing that great encode. I've seen the film so many times in VHS/VCD quality, it was a delight seeing it in such high quality!

If you'd like more goengsi action, watch Sammo Hung's precursor "Encounters of the Spooky Kind", or the homage "Rigor Mortis" where half of tonight's cast appear, 27 years older. (That one's serious, not comedy)

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

@strangefour We do get end credits though, I'll give it that

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@diazona

You have much to learn in the ways of goengsi science, grasshopper

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

I feel like mind-controlling a vampire army should be a little more effective than rice, but what do I know

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@Terencio 😂 true

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

The longer the fangs the more they get hurt by glutinous rice

#VampireScience

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

what about a vampire fly

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

mind masers

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@strangefour I can see where there would be some trust issues though

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@Terencio yeah seriously

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Careful, don't lose your head

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Ah now Man Choi is a guy who knows how to maximize being a vampire

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@klu9 😂

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Baby, it's cold outside

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

@Terencio yeah seriously

although maybe that's more of a modern thing

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@SnoopJ whew

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@strangefour

Just sub-plot

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Oh hey the ghost is back!

And she's visible now...?

idk I'm just rolling with it

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@klu9 @Terencio lol yeah me too

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@diazona @Terencio

Now I want fried rice cakes

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

@Terencio product placement FTW

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Now that's a licking stick!

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

"Hard is stiff, stiff is hard"

huh

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@forestine

I keep trying to get the modern day one (Magic Cop) but without success

There's one on the Internet Archive but the subs are so bad I gave up after 20 minutes

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

there are i think five of these. all unrelated plots but all have the unibrow monk. my favourite is the third one. #Monsterdon #monsterdonDoubleFeature

...one might say it was lit

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

I think this one didn't hop because he hadn't been thru any of the funerary process yet

#MOnsterMiru #Monsterdon

@strangefour seems appropriate in this movie TBH

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Our vampire aged like 50 years in the few hours between when he was exhumed and when he broke out of the coffin

...maybe there's a common thread here

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Licking each others' hands is indeed a major relationship milestone

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

Ting-ting says: "Hey, slapping's MY job!"

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

"Female ghost looking for a lover"

hey didn't we just see that one (kinda)

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

If you light enough joss sticks, they can make a good impromptu bicycle lamp

#MonsterMiru #Monsterdon

@Terencio

Rich guy suspects his bad luck is due to his dead father having an improper burial

Taoist priest death consultant exhumes dead dad, says "you're right" and prepares for a proper reburial

But dead dad isn't decomposed...

#MonsterMiru #Monsterdon

I wonder what the vampire is doing now

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@klu9 huh TIL

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@diazona

Common *now*

They got them from the Portuguese in Macau

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

@SnoopJ Ah true, I forgot that she knew what she was doing

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

@diazona

They haven't eaten Western-style before

#MonsterMiru #Monsterdon #MrVampire

@strangefour @trixter hah clever

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire

I don't know what's going on but I'm already more interested

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #MonsterMiru #MrVampire
