[Edit this paragraph] Synopsis of the story:
Hong Kong's soul fantasy kung fu film reached its peak, and 1985 caused a sensation when it was released, with a box office of 20 million, which set off an upsurge of competing for zombie films. In the year of 1986 alone, more than 10 follow-up films were released. The design of people holding their breath to avoid zombies in the film is impressive and is still imitated by many similar films. Renmou, a rich gentleman, followed Mr. Feng Shui's advice and moved my father's coffin to another place. Ask Uncle Daochang to help with this matter. The coffin was opened and the body did not rot. My uncle became suspicious and ordered his disciples Cai Wen and Huang Qiusheng to take care of them. In the middle of the night, Ren was killed by a zombie. In order to protect his sweetheart, he was poisoned by ptomaine, and he almost became a zombie. Anthony wong was confused by this amorous female ghost. Nine uncle spared the female ghost without malice and saved Anthony wong from the zombie, so he let the female ghost go. Zombies go to the ninth uncle's house to bite their granddaughter; Uncle Jiu and his apprentice Huang Qiusheng arrived and subdued the zombies, but the zombies were too powerful for them to deal with. On the occasion of Jiushu's defeat, the younger brother rushed to the corpse-driving Taoist priest, and the three of them worked together to burn the zombies.
