It's the final Spooky Season© Fight Scene Friday™, and this week's scene is another great tribute to classic Hong Kong cinema by the Martial Club crew! This short film is an homage to the horror martial arts comedies of the 80s, like Encounter Of The Spooky Kind and Mr. Vampire. It is also a tribute to the jiangshi, which is the Chinese vampire (if you didn't know, the vampire myth originated in China; the gothic/European vampire came later). There are other references in there, like music from Drunken Master II, the classic zooming in and out from The Young Master, and I think Brian Le is dressed similar to Sammo Hung's character in Pedicab Driver, among many others. Anyways, check it out!
