I think the same company released a really awful version of Franco's 'Devil Hunter' (maybe Videoasia?) that I have but I'll have to double check.The Bloody Pit of Horrorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04419921450872885649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-75915417750313032412016-02-21T20:09:22.379-05:002016-02-21T20:09:22.379-05:00'golden age' HK addict here. just checked:...'golden age' HK addict here. just checked: my DOCTOR VAMPIRE is the old WA DVD (chinese, c. 2001). looks good, and widescreen, but mandarin only (a killer) with english subs. the sloppily cut-down artwork (and disc) misidentifies the release year as 1989. looks like joy-sales put out a DVD in '08 as part of their 'legendary collection'. that'll have the cantonese track.spookyx3https://www.blogger.com/profile/16031768705430185415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-38810074341615572282016-02-21T18:42:09.695-05:002016-02-21T18:42:09.695-05:00I really do like many of these HK horror-comedies....I really do like many of these HK horror-comedies. When they don't work they're some of the hardest movies to get through but when they do they're great! I own a copy of Doctor Vampire but haven't gotten around to watching it yet. I think the copy I have is pretty bad quality so that hasn't lit a fire under my ass to check it out.The Bloody Pit of Horrorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04419921450872885649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-41253513664649317932016-02-21T17:09:20.693-05:002016-02-21T17:09:20.693-05:00yeah, i loved this. have to admit, for the first 3...yeah, i loved this. have to admit, for the first 30 minutes i was wondering where all the good reviews were coming from. an hour left, everything begins to jell and never lets up. the bat-attack on the church was amazing. dunno why i saved this for so long, it's not like it's possible to run out of 80s HK ghost/vamp comedies. another featuring a 'western'-type bloodsucker was jamie luk's DR. VAMPIRE from late 1990 (imdb wrongly calls it 1991). i wasn't impressed by it, though that was so long ago i'm not sure why. spookyx3https://www.blogger.com/profile/16031768705430185415noreply@blogger.com
