- Mr Vampire - Commentary by Bey Logan
Film Synopsis:
Hong Kong denizens fend off vampires by holding their breath and brandishing coagulated rice.
Mr. Vampire is a 1985 Hong Kong comedy horror film directed by Ricky Lau in his directorial debut, and also produced by Sammo Hung. The film's box office success led to the creation of a Mr. Vampire franchise, with the release of four sequels directed by Ricky Lau from 1986 to 1992, and subsequent similarly themed films with different directors released between 1987 and 1991. The vampire of the film is based on the jiangshi, the hopping corpses of Chinese folklore. The film was released under the Chinese title 暫時停止呼吸 (literally: Hold Your Breath for a Moment) in Taiwan. The film was the breakthrough success of the jiangshi genre, a trend popular in Hong Kong during the 1980s, and established many of the genre's recognisable tropes.
So much to learn of Chinese culture and tradition with commentaries like these!

I would have to disagree with the statement that this is during the Qing era.
First and foremost the most obvious is the uniforms the soldiers wear, which are clearly Republican with the five colored star.
Another more glaring obvious sign that this is no longer the Qing dynasty era, is that no male characters are wearing their hairstyles in the form of a queue, they are relatively modern hairstyles, all short hair lengths
Damn you..no video.
It's the offical commentary like the title says... You can find the film itself in 2 seconds online.
Go talk to yourself
This is not me talking lol, it's the offical commentary for the film.
AN hour of talking, seriosuly?
