Overview
Yunpeng and his servant stay at a country inn one dark evening to escape potential robbers and ghosts. But Yunpeng chances into something far more dangerous! He accidentally happens upon the comely Anu naked in bed, and to make up for his rudeness he has to marry her. Because of her beauty, the request is not too difficult to fulfill…until she is introduced to his aunts and uncles, who notice her ghastly green glow and deduce that she’s a spirit from the netherworld. But there’s something even darker about her appearance, and it may be revenge on his in-laws.

Viewing Notes
Another very fine Shaw Production. Of the Shout releases this has the worst transfer I’ve seen. Not terrible but noticeable lacking.
Watched the entire Tony Rayns extra were talks about how Shaw opted to have this movie made in Taiwan. Plus he discusses the horror influences that Shaw incorporated in their films.

That Raynes interview is better than the movie! So damn good!
