Collected here are three of the standout titles from that horror boom, starring the likes of Chow Yun-fat (The Seventh Curse), Wu Ma (A Chinese Ghost Story) and Ricky Hui (Mr Vampire): Scared Stiff, The Haunted Cop Shop and Magic of Spell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLau Kar-wing (Crouching Tiger, Fatty Dragon) directs Scared Stiff, in which a young everyman develops the ability to enter other people’s dreams following an accident – and then finds himself using his gift to bring a sadistic murderer to justice. Co-written by Wong Kar-wai (Ashes of Time) and indebted in equal measure to Mr Vampire and Fright Night, The Haunted Cop Shop sees cops and crooks alike forced to confront vengeful beings from beyond the grave in a police station built on a site of violence. Finally, in a supernatural wuxia fantasy on par with The Miracle Fighters and Shaolin Drunkard, Magic of Spell follows a kung fu master who must defeat the infernal demon responsible for his mother’s death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRanging in tone from laugh-out-loud comedy to straight-faced terror (sometimes in the same film) and featuring a litany of ruthless killers, restless spirits, vengeful jiangshi and infernal devils, Scared Stiff, The Haunted Cop Shop and Magic of Spell encapsulate the incredible range of Chinese-language horror filmmaking in the 1980s. Eureka Classics is thrilled to present all three films for the first time on Blu-ray in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIAL FEATURES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited edition O-card slipcase featuring new artwork by Darren Wheeling [2000 copies]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited edition collector’s booklet featuring an essay on the borrowing and remixing of world genre traditions in Scared Stiff, The Haunted Cop Shop and Magic of Spell by Iain Robert Smith, author of The Hollywood Meme: Transnational Adaptations in World Cinema [2000 copies]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1080p HD presentations on Blu-ray from new 2K restorations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo presentations of Scared Stiff, the original Hong Kong theatrical cut and uncut extended version\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginal Cantonese mono audio tracks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional English subtitles, newly translated for this release\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew audio commentary on Scared Stiff by East Asian cinema expert Frank Djeng (NY Asian Film Festival)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew audio commentaries on The Haunted Cop Shop and Magic of Spell by genre cinema expert Arne Venema and filmmaker Domting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRestless Spirits – new interview on the history of horror cinema in Hong Kong and Taiwan with film writer, curator and East Asian film expert Fraser Elliott\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eureka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41134663139377,"sku":null,"price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/9878\/2001\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_353a2b73-b542-4023-8f5f-f8ded8418899.jpg?v=1784875572","url":"https:\/\/openframemedia.co\/products\/ghouls-gone-wild-limited-edition-eureka-blu-ray-region-b-uk-import","provider":"Open Frame Media","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
