    part 2...wow
    April 2021

    Encounters of the spooky kind 2 has nothing to do with number 1, its just another very similar film with many of the same actors.

    Lam ching ying is playing his more usual role this time and Meng Hoi figures prominently too.

    If you love these ghosty comedy horrors then you cannot go wrong, i slightly prefer this to the first one, the end 15 mins are fantastic.

    10 out of 10.
