Having just watched the 1985 movie "Geung See Sin Sang" (aka "Mr. Vampire"), of course I continued on with the 1986 sequel titled "Geung See Ga Zuk" (aka "Mr. Vampire II"), as I had three of the movies all lined up.
And with the previous movie being an adequately entertaining movie, I had some expectations for the 1986 sequel.
The storyline in "Geung See Ga Zuk" was a bit more laced with comedy in comparison to the previous movie. And it was a more family-friendly movie as well, as there was a lot of scenes that felt like it was something out of a "Sesame Street" episode with the children and the child vampire, especially the play montage. Whereas the previous movie was set in ancient China, this 1986 sequel was set in a modern era (well, modern back in 1986, at least).
The slow motion sequence with the fighting and the dialogue had me laughing. It was the high point of the movie.
There were a good amount of returning actors and actresses from the first movie returning to part II, with the likes of Ching-Ying Lam, Moon Lee, Chau-Sang Lau. But this 1986 sequel also had the likes of Stanley Sui-Fan Fung and Biao Yuen on the cast list.
Well, if you enjoyed the previous movie, then you will also enjoy this 1986 sequel.
My rating of director Ricky Lau's 1986 movie "Geung See Ga Zuk" lands on a five out of ten stars.
